*The People Speak: A Live Performance*

Thursday, January 27, 7 PM

The Red Herring

1209 W. Oregon St.

Urbana



It's been a year since we lost the people's historian Howard Zinn.
Commemorate the anniversary of his passing with local activists from the
campus and the community as we perform a live staged reading of The People
Speak.

ABOUT THE SHOW
Democracy is not a spectator sport. Using dramatic and musical performances
of the letters, diaries and speeches of everyday Americans, THE PEOPLE SPEAK
gives voice to those who spoke up for social change throughout U.S. history,
forging a nation from the bottom up with their insistence on equality and
justice. Based on Zinn’s best-selling books, *A People’s History of the
United States *and *Voices of a People’s History of the United States*, THE
PEOPLE SPEAK illustrates the relevance of these passionate historical
moments to our society today and reminds us never to take liberty for
granted.

$5 suggested donation at the door. Proceeds benefit the Center for Economic
Research and Social Change (publisher of Haymarket Books and the *International
Socialist Review*) and The People Speak.
