In the popular imagination, U.S. anarchism ended with the deportation of Emma Goldman in 1919, only to re-emerge recently with the masked Black Bloc. But according to scholar Andrew Cornell, anarchism survived and thrived in mid-century America, deeply influencing bohemia, Civil Rights, and the New Left.

An excellent guest, very knowledgable and insightful re anachism. Expecially interesting was the time segments — early US anarchism, the 1930s and ’40s, the role of anarchism in the Civil Rights era, and on up through today.
And it was a good conversation with Sasha Lilley.
