FBI: Yep, he was a Commie.
No doubt there will be those that will attempt to claim that because there is no video of him admitting it, or a smoking gun consisting of something like his signed party membership form (yet), that the released documents means he wasn't a member of the Communist Party (of any country). But by any reasonable interpretation of the "walks like a duck" test,
Zinn was an unapologetic, Marxist, anti-American
POS -- the
released FBI documents merely drive the truth home.
Yes, Howard
Zinn is dead. Unfortunately, he's just not dead
enough,....yet. With a fatuous
Zinn.org website updated regularly (including proud links to the FBI documents), and seemingly no shortage of Omega-columnists providing
carefully selective references to the released files, (including avoiding
any mention of the record showing he was filmed
teaching Marxism to
ACP members, nor of his associating with just about every ACP front group that came along) his legacy will no doubt 'struggle' on for some time, carried by the latest crop of equally despicable fellow travellers.
Update: Some observations on Zinn and his fan base from
Ron Radosh.
