Book Event: Dr. WIlliam Pelz 11-19 A PEOPLES HISTORY OF MODERN EUROPE 7:00P Red June Café
A PEOPLE’S HISTORY OF MODERN EUROPE
From the monarchical terror of the Middle Ages to the mangled Europe of the 21st century, A People’s History of Modern Europe tracks the history of the continent through the deeds of those whom mainstream history tries to forget.
Join us for a conversation with author, William A. Pelz, who will dialogue with Loren Balhorn (Die Linke-Berlin) and the audience.
Loren Balhorn (Member of Die Linke (Berlin), translator for Historical Materialism Book Series) & William A. Pelz – (Director of the Institute of Working Class History(Chicago) & History Professor at Elgin Community College)
“This book is a splendid antidote to the many European histories dominated by kings, businessmen and generals. It should be on the shelves of both academics and activists . . . a lively and informative intellectual tour de force.”
- Marcel van der Linden, International Institute of Social History (Amsterdam)
