The People Speak : American Voices, Some Famous, Some Little Known, from Columbus to the Present

To celebrate the millionth copy sold of Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States, Zinn drew on the words of Americans–some famous, some little known–across the range of American history. These words were read by a remarkable cast at an event held at the 92nd Street Y in New York City that included James Earl Jones, Alice Walker, Kurt Vonnegut, Alfre Woodard, Marisa Tomei, Danny Glover, Harris Yulin, Andre Gregory, and others.
