David Rubenstein Atrium at Lincoln Center

There are two ways to access this free event:
1. General Admission, first-come first-served. Just show up!
2. Fast Track, opening the Monday before the event at noon.

The works of Brooklyn-born author and historian Howard Zinn (1922–2010), particularly the classic bestsellers A People’s History of the United States and Voices of a People’s History of the United States, continue to shine a light on the extraordinary history of those engaged in struggles for freedom and justice in America. Since 2014, Lincoln Center has collaborated with Voices of a People’s History, a non-profit organization of artists and educators who seek to keep Zinn’s message of grassroots egalitarianism alive. This special tenth anniversary event at the David Rubenstein Atrium presents a vital reimagining of Zinn’s subjects through a musical and spoken word celebration of dissent, change, and civic growth. Using the words of the rebels, dissenters, and visionaries of our past and present as a blueprint, this evening will inspire us all to take collective action to shape our future. Featured artists to be announced.
