Summary: History as a Candle in the Dark, or: How to Save the World
Comment: This collection of essays, though dated by specific focus, is far and away the most timely warning to America. Hyper-nationalism, racism, conquest, and the modes of governmental control of it's citizenry all come under fire in this book, whose authors could motivate even the most stagnant stalwart. It says triumphantly, that radicals and reformers are not dead, and will not disappear until each and every member of human society is both. Howard Zinn, both contributor and introductory speaker, is a beacon towards reconstructive, revisionary history, and this century's spokesperson for the pursuit of history as a candle in the dark. Noam Chomsky, Mike Davis, Marlene Fried and others paint a portrait of modern society, clear about it's offenses to human dignity and it's abounding folly, and offer both a critique of those people and trends responsible, and a path towards salvation. I recomend this book to anyone who believes in the courage of individual spirit over those who would silence it. Radicalism is given back its good and powerful name in Open Fire.
