About this listen

Howard Zinn tells the story of one of the most important organizations of the Civil Rights Movement. SNCC: The New Abolitionists influenced a generation of activists struggling for civil rights and seeking to learn from the successes and failures of those who built the tremendously influential Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. It is considered an indispensable study of the organization, of the 1960s, and of the process of social change. Includes a new introduction by the author.

I love Howard Zinn's work and view him as my gate way into historical studies.
I love the story of this book. A historical chronicle of the SNCC; the sit-ins, the Freedom Riders, the cruelty of the American South.

But, the narrator is lacking. In order to add gravitas to the narration they speak in a cold, somber voice. Which saps the words and message of their crackling energy.

Good book, so-so narrator. maybe buy the physical book instead.
