I got the email a while ago, but forgot to post it up here. So I’ll just borrow my post from MWD over at New Iowan (definitely check that blog out, it looks good):
“THOMAS FRANK
author of What’s The Matter With Kansas?
Drake University - Bulldog Theater
7:00 p.m., Wednesday, January 18
Free and Open to the PublicOne of “our most insightful social observers” (Los Angeles Times) cracks the great political mystery of our time: how conservatism, once a marker of class privilege, became the creed of millions of ordinary Americans. Frank explains why the populist right eagerly embraces a values-based agenda and votes against their economic interests.”
Bulldog Theater is in the lower level of Drake University’s Olmsted Center. It’ll definitely be a well-attended event. If you’re interested in purchasing his book, you can get a new paperback copy at Amazon.com for $10.50. And you can get more information on Frank here at his website.
