Voices Of A People's History Of The United States includes selected testimonies to living history left by the people who make history happen but are often left out of history books - women, workers, non-whites. Also included are introductions to the original texts by Zinn. New voices being considered for this tenth Anniversary Edition include Chelsea Manning, in the statement she made after being sentenced to 35 years in prison and a member of The Dream Defenders (a youth organisation that confronts systemic racial inequality).
