Obama Disappoints Howard Zinn Groupies

2010 January 28

Fans of the late Howard Zinn swarmed Twitter Wednesday, mourning his death and fantasizing about President Obama honoring the Marxist propagandist during the State of the Union address.

LilianaSegura: In a just world, Obama would use his platform tonight to honor Howard Zinn.

banditelli: If Obama doesn’t mention Zinn in the SOTU tonight I’m quitting the democratic party.

scottlearns: If there isn’t a #SotU shout-out to Howard Zinn, Obama will have betrayed progressives.

Betrayed by an unjust world, perhaps they can console themselves with their dog-eared copies of A People’s History of the United States.
