31. The problem is that, even yet, history as it is taught
in the US is the history only of privileged White males. Women, Black people, aboriginal people...all were (and still are) left out. That is why Prof. Zinn's People's History of the United States is considered so radical--it actually talks about historical events from the perspective of working people.
