Vivian Strange | Columbus and the Cost of Human "Progress" (A People's History of the United States, ep. 1) @vivianstrange | Uploaded 3 months ago | Updated 1 hour ago
"Chapter 1: Columbus, the Indians, and Human Progress" (p. 1-22) (bibliography below)
Here in this hot revolutionary summer of 2024, it's a very weird time to be an American. Every single one of us can at least FEEL this thing we call History unfolding all around us; we all seem to just understand on some level that we are living through historically significant times.
After all, this fall, the battle for American democracy culminates in Election Day, apparently the most important election in our lifetime, if not in all of American history!
If this is something you believe, then we need to learn some actual American history together. So for the next few months, we're going to read A People's History of the United States, by Howard Zinn, one of if not THE most important historical nonfiction text in US history.
This book contains a more truthful telling of the America's brutal and violent history than you've probably ever heard before - ESPECIALLY if you were educated in US public schools, where children are brainwashed by wall-to-wall revisionist colonizer propaganda, narratives built on lies, omissions, and delusional dangerous myths.
In these weird and unsettling times, defined by mass death and g3n0c1d3 juxtaposed with the trivial spectacle of red vs blue political theatre, it's more important than EVER to study and learn the human histories underlying the entire system connecting -- and controlling -- all humankind.
