Here's the audio link - only available until Monday 01/02 : http://www.tv-radio.com/ondemand/france_inter/LABAS/LABAS.ram You'll hear Zinn in English in between the presenter talking in French.

In the late Sixties I marched with students and others in Dublin against the Vietnam War a few times. I remember from reading about the antiwar movement in the USA that Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, Norman Mailer, Fr. Dan Berrigan SJ and Dr. Benjamin Spock were among the leading "big names" during those troubled times. Rev. Martin Luther King, busy as he was with the civil rights movement, also spoke out against the war. In Ireland two prominent anti Vietnam War leaders were Dan Breen and Peadar O'Donnell.
