“Howard Zinn Died for Your Sins is a song written to express the anger we felt in Minnesota as the federal government occupied the city of Minneapolis and outlying suburbs, resulting in the death of two innocent people. Punk rock and politics go hand in hand, and this track and accompanying video illustrates the anger, sadness, and fear that we in Minnesota felt.” (Cindy Lawson)
