Order in the Poor Peoples’ Movements

by Dan S. Wang

Dan S. Wang lives in Madison, where he doesn’t garden but does canoe. His rainy days are for letterpress, snowy days for writing, sunny days for social movements, and any day for making a buck.

The text is a distillation of a passage from Piven & Cloward’s political science classic Poor Peoples’ Movements. The image is sourced from a letterpress composition he set and printed a few years ago. The actual size is about 8x5 inches. The print, Order in the Poor Peoples’ Movements, has been seen only rarely and never has been digitized until this inclusion in Verse Wisconsin.
