About the book

This collection of writings and images documents the political history of NYC's Lower East Side, describing the lives and struggles of the radicals, artists and immigrants that populated and politicised one of America's strangest and most beloved neighbourhoods. Current and former residents of the neighbourhood explore the social, political and human landscapes of one of America's most storied bohemias. In over 50 chapters, Emma Goldman, Dorothy Day, Christopher Mele and others cover topics ranging from the early sweatshops to squatters, rioters, artists and activists.
