Read the comments. Here's one:
What would be hysterical about Zinn, and Chomsky as well, if it weren't so pathetic, is to consider how they themselves chose to live their adult lives. I live in Newton, MA, roughly 5 minutes walk from Zinn's palatial home in the Auburndale section of Newton. I grew up in Lexington, MA and attended a middle school that is approximately 500 yards from Chomsky equally luxurious home. Evidently one of Zinn's daughters also lives in Lexington. It is no exaggeration to say that Newton and Lexington are among the most affluent communities in the USA. Such men of the people! It's fine to be an out-of-the-box thinker, but even Zinn's ardent admirers should be troubled by his hypocrisy and double standards.
