2019 Zaytuna College Book Club: The Bomb
Be a part of a powerful discussion on the book The Bomb by Howard Zinn. As an American World War II combat soldier, Howard Zinn took part in the aerial bombing of Royan, France. In this short yet impactful book, Zinn offers how his personal experience as a soldier and later meeting with Hiroshima survivors, coupled with profound political analysis, helped shape his worldview as an anti-authoritarian, antiwar historian.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. The program starts at 7:00 p.m. sharp.
