Tonight! “More Powerful Than Dynamite: Radicals, Plutocrats, Progressives, and New York’s Year of Anarchy”

Tonight in Butler Room 523 at 6:30pm, author Thai Jones will read and discuss his latest work, "More Powerful Than Dynamite: Radicals, Plutocrats, Progressives, and New York's Year of Anarchy."

Jones, who wrote "A Radical Line: From the Labor Movement to the Weather Undergroud, One Family's Century of Conscience," is intimately familiar with anarchy in the United States; his parents were members of the radical group the Weather Underground.  He was 4 years old when they were arrested by the F.B.I.  A historian of anarchism and Columbia Ph.D candiate, Jones has continued to investigate anarchy in the U.S.

Join Jones tonight as he discusses anarchy in New York in 1914, nearly a century before Occupy Wall St.
