For this (optional) extra blog post, you should read Chapter 19 in Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States.  The chapter is titled “Surprises” and is about the various important liberation movements that occurred in America during the 1960s and 1970s. Zinn discusses women, Latinos, gay people, Native Americans, and many more. Choose TWO individuals from the chapter and write brief profiles, focusing on why you think Zinn includes them.  In other words, WHY ARE THEY IMPORTANT?  Your post should include direct quotes from each figure. Do not post repeats!
