Empire or Humanity? What the Classroom Didn’t Teach Me about the American Empire by Howard Zinn Narrated by Viggo Mortensen Art by Mike Konopacki Video editing by Eric Wold. Mr. Zinn’s writings can certainly be critiqued as they should, but they greatly influenced my own love for storytelling and the hidden lessons buried in our past. And while I am responsible for helping kids wrap their head around very tradition content, my other objective was always to make them think. Social Studies teachers don’t teach history, we use history to teach kids how to think. I hope my YouTube channel facilitates that endeavor. Thanks Zinn, your life mattered a lot.
