Zinn+-+Progressive+Era+Fall+2009

Before reading, here are a few thoughts/links you should consider: 1. Not everything associated with big business is "rosy." 2. Taylorism & Fordism 101 3. It is easier to read the Zinn excerpt from The People's History of the United States website instead of the document! Start with "As Harry Braverman said..." and finish with "...gavel to open the convention." 4. Students should have the questions answered, printed out, and ready to turn in for Thursday's class. 5. Howard Zinn, the author, will be introduced during the next class.
