Citizens,
In honor of our country and its great potential, a
massive horde of Triangle actors will be presenting a
staged reading of selections from Howard Zinn's
landmark book, A PEOPLE'S HISTORY OF THE UNITED
STATES.
This is a benefit for Traction, local Lefties who
do good deeds: protecting immigration and voting
rights; disseminating information about STD's and
health care; and fighting for economic justice and
pece. All that and sexy too... Check them out:

Please join us and spread the word!
