Through this rich narrative, editors Neil Smith and Don Mitchell reveal a continuous, if varied and punctuated, history of Rebellion in New York that is as vital as the more standard histories of formal politics, planning, economic growth, and restructuring that largely define our consciousness of New York\'s story.
Richly illustrated with more than ninety historical and contemporary images, historical maps, and maps drawn especially for the book, Revolting New York provides the first comprehensive account of the historical geography of revolt in New York, from the earliest uprisings of the Munsee against the Dutch occupation of Manhattan in the seventeenth century to the Black Lives Matter movement and the unrest of the Trump era.
Hard hitting, revealing, and insightful, Revolting New York tells the story of New York\'s evolution through revolution, a story of near-continuous popular (and sometimes not-so-popular) uprising.
From the earliest European colonization to the present, New Yorkers have been revolting.
It was part of a long history of riot, revolt, uprising, and sometimes even Revolution that has Shaped New York City.
