50 American revolutions you're not supposed to know : reclaiming American patriotism by Michael Zezima
Mickey Z. at his tendentious best. He probes the many and various ramifications of events like the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire, and recontextualizes them out of the realm of Monolithic Overculture Thinking. It's like a fast and furious version of Saving Private Power, his deconstruction of WWII as a venal moneygrubbing exercise instead of the Great and Noble Enterprise we're forced to think it was by the pounding drumbeat of the mass culture we live in.
Mickey's never been in danger of show more being mainstream, speaking as one who knows and loves him as a friend, but this kind of work that so depserately needs doing will make him an outrider to the left of where the herd walks for good and ever. Thanks be for that! show less
