Discussion GroupReading Group: "We Are an Image From the Future: The Greek Revolt of December 2008"May 17 2010 - 7:00pm May 17 2010 - 9:00pm ![]() (PLEASE NOTE: THE DATE HAS BEEN CHANGED) Following up on our exciting presentation and discussion by the authors of this book back in February, the Internationalist welcomes all interested in the recent riots in Greece to join us for a reading group to discuss "We Are an Image From the Future: The Greek Revolt of December 2008" (AK Press, 2010). What causes a city, then a whole country, to explode? How did one neighborhood's outrage over the tragic death of one teenager transform itself into a generalized insurrection against State and capital, paralyzing an entire nation for a month?

Derrick Jensen says this book "saved his life", while Alice Walker calls it "one of the most important books we can read" - yet vegans delivered a cayenne-laced pie to the face of the author during her reading at the 2010 San Francisco Anarchist Bookfair!
