Howard Zinn, the Communist

It was already pretty clear from his body of work that most liberal’s favorite historian, Howard Zinn, was a far leftist, and even a “small c” communist.  Now we can officially uppercase that C – he was a member of the Communist Party. Now imagine if a historian were exposed as, say, a Bircher. (An organization which, while wacky – and I say that as one who was briefly a member, back when they mostly just hated the United Nations – is not responsible for the death of 100 million people, more or less.) How would liberals respond to such a scenario? You think they’d scour college curriculums clean of his work? Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States is standard reading for a lot of colleges. His work has been featured on the History Channel and even packaged for the K-12 crowd.
