The Weatherman Meets The Angry Brigade26 February
2007
Bill Ayers is a 1960s-era political activist and former member of
the insurrectionist New Left organisation The Weather Underground.
Radicalised at university into membership of Students for a Democratic
Society, Ayers went underground and, together with this co-conspirators,
mounted a bombing campaign against American Government buildings before
turning himself in in 1981. In this unique encounter, Ayers meets John
Barker, who was jailed for his part in The Angry Brigade's bomb
attacks around Britain between 1970 and 1972, to talk about our cultural
fascination with the insurrectionist New Left, its influence on
contemporary culture, and whether they have any regrets. Chairing the
debate will be Hari Kunzru, author of The Impressionist, who is
working on a novel about the British New Left.
This talk is produced in association with Verso Books, as part of the
Verso Radical Thinkers series of talks.
