Howard Zinn Zitate

If those in charge of our society - politicians, corporate executives, and owners of press and television - can dominate our ideas, they will be secure in their power. They will not need soldiers patrolling the streets. We will control ourselves.

Howard Zinn

Deutsche Übersetzung

Wenn die Verantwortlichen unserer Gesellschaft - Politiker, Führungskräfte und Eigentümer von Presse und Fernsehen - unsere Ideen beherrschen können, werden sie in ihrer Macht stehen. Sie brauchen keine Soldaten, die die Straßen patrouillieren. Wir werden uns kontrollieren.
