        Why History From Below Matters: An Interview with Howard Zinn
      
                    In this 2005 interview, Zinn explained his approach to writing history:  “I am going to write about what I think is important: the social struggles of people, the class structure in the United States, the racial problem, the problem of sexual equality, the problem of war. Those are the things that are going to guide me.”
