Matt Damon reads from Howard Zinn’s speech “The Problem is Civil Obedience” (November 1970) from Voices of a People's History on Vimeo.
I am not advocating the ideas of Howard Zinn here. I don’t know enough about him. He appears to be some sort of anarcho-socialist. I don’t agree with everything in the video, but I do agree that we should not blindly obey the state.
