November 15: AK Press & authors @ Howard Zinn Bookfair, San Francisco

Posted on November 9th, 2015 in Events

The Howard Zinn Book Fair is an annual celebration of People’s History, Past Present and Future. We gather together for a day of readings, panel discussions and workshops exploring the value of dissident histories towards building a better future. In the spirit of the late historian Howard Zinn we recognize the stories of the ways that everyday people have risen to propose a world beyond empires big and small.
