Tonight: William "Upski" Wimsatt!

Monday, October 11, 7:30 PM
William Upski Wimsatt presents Please Don’t Bomb the Suburbs


As a potty-mouthed graffiti writer from the Southside of Chicago, William "Upski" Wimsatt electrified the literary and hip-hop world with two of the most successful underground classic books in a generation, Bomb the Suburbs (1994) and No More Prisons (1999), which combined sold more than 90,000 copies. In his new book Please Don’t Bomb the Suburbs, Wimsatt weaves a first-person tour of America's cultural and political movements from 1985 to 2010 – a story about love, growing up, a generation coming of age, and a vision for the movement young people will create in the new decade.
