A People's History of the United States is the work that opened my eyes to the horrific history of capitalism, and opened the door to socialist theory. Happy birthday, Howard.

    Make no mistake, shit is fucked now, but for people to really be burning shit down, shit has to be really fucked. I was reading a little of Hammer and Hoe, and there I saw the first example I could think of where large numbers of Americans were turning to communism. These people, coincidentally, were working constantly but also like starving to death.
