Pourquoi reprendre le montage de la fresque « Howard Zinn, une histoire populaire américaine » ?

Parce qu’en 2025, l’histoire s’efface. Littéralement.

La photo de l’Enola Gay supprimée à cause du mot “Gay”.
Tuskegee Airmen, Navajo Code Talkers,
Les femmes pilotes du WASP effacées.
Black Panthers : rayés des archives.

Un texte sidérant à lire sur lesmutins.org :

#Trump#USA#DEI

Le président Trump poursuit aujourd’hui sa purge par un grand effacement et un révisionnisme de l’histoire des États-Unis, une histoire qui nous regarde de près, nous Français, à qui on annonce déjà une « trumpisation des esprits ».

📣 Alors, on vous annonce le retour de Zinn !
Un nouveau film, dix ans après le premier.
Plus que jamais utile pour comprendre le monde...

Through it all, Zinn writes, "I see this as the central issue of our time: how to find a substitute for war in human ingenuity, imagination, courage, sacrifice, patience." --Ron Hogan

If Zinn is a bit Pollyannish, he's also inspirational, arguing that, because much has changed in history, "We can be surprised again. Indeed, we can do the surprising."

Howard Zinn: A People's History of the United States (2016)

With the tremendous success of his book, A People's History of the United States, Howard Zinn radically changed the way Americans see themselves. His friend Noam Chomsky says that Zinn litteraly transformed a generation's conscience. Zinn talks about those who have no voice in the official History : Slaves, Indians, deserters, textile workers, union men.

“There is a tendency to think that what we see in the present moment we will continue to see. We forget how often in this century we have been astonished by the sudden crumbling of institutions, by extraordinary changes in people's thoughts, by unexpected eruptions of rebellion against tyrannies, by the quick collapse of systems of power that seemed invincible.

To be hopeful in bad times is not just foolishly romantic. It is based on the fact that human history is a history not only of cruelty, but also compassion, sacrifice, courage, kindness.

What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places—and there are so many—where people behaved magnificently, this gives us the energy to act, and at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction.
And if we do act, in however small a way, we don't have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory.”

— Howard Zinn

To be honest, I have zero hope. Especially today, when I only want to lie on my back on the floor.

But I want hope. I want to believe that we stand a chance and will survive this. So I’m trying to find words of encouragement from wise people.

When I find encouraging words I will share them with you. Let us strengthen each other if we can.

Thank you, Howard.
