Third Place Books welcomes Spencer Sunshine to our Seward Park store for a discussion of his book, Neo-Nazi Terrorism and Countercultural Fascism: The Origins and Afterlife of James Mason's Siege. A new wave of aspiring neo-Nazi terrorists has arisen. And they have a bible: James Mason’s Siege, which praises terrorism, serial killers, and Charles Manson. Neo-Nazi Terrorism and Countercultural Fascism, based on years of archival work and interviews, documents for the first time the origins of Siege. This event is free and open to the public. For important updates, RSVP is highly recommended in advance. This event will include a public signing and time for audience Q&A. Sustain our author series by purchasing a copy of the featured book! Having trouble registering? See Eventbrite's troubleshooting FAQ here. Tickets:This event is free to attend. Registration is required in advance. About Neo-Nazi Terrorism and Countercultural Fascism . . .A new wave of aspiring neo-Nazi terrorists has arisen—including the infamous Atomwaffen Division. And they have a bible: James Mason’s Siege, which praises terrorism, serial killers, and Charles Manson. Neo-Nazi Terrorism and Countercultural Fascism, based on years of archival work and interviews, documents for the first time the origins of Siege. First, it shows how Mason’s vision arose from debates by 1970s neo-Nazis who splintered off the American Nazi Party/National Socialist White People's Party and spun off a terrorist faction. Second, it unveils how four 1980s countercultural figures—musicians Boyd Rice and Michael Moynihan, Feral House publisher Adam Parfrey, and Satanist Nikolas Schreck—discovered, promoted, and published Mason. Neo-Nazi Terrorism and Countercultural Fascism explores a previously overlooked period and unearths the hidden connections between a countercultural clique and violent neo-Nazis—which together have set the template for today’s Neo-nazi terrorist underground. It is obligatory reading for those interested in contemporary terrorism, postwar countercultures, and the history of the U.S. Far Right and neo-Nazism. Spencer Sunshine (spencersunshine.com) has written about the Far Right for two decades, publishing on platforms like the Southern Poverty Law Center, Daily Beast, Truthout, and JTA. His latest book is Neo-Nazi Terrorism and Countercultural Fascism: The Origins and Afterlife of James Mason's Siege (Routledge, 2024). About Third Place BooksFounded in 1998 in Lake Forest Park, Washington, Third Place Books is dedicated to the creation of a community around books and the ideas inside them.

Artist Talk | Bong Jun Kim. Remembering Democracy Through Art | Gallery B612, 1st Avenue South, Seattle, WA, USA

Seattle
Arts
Fine Art
Join Gallery B612 on January 9th for an artist talk with Bong Jun Kim Related to his Retrospective Exhibition. This exhibition is not just a display of artwork, but a reminder of the sacrifices made by the Korean people in the pursuit of democracy. The timing of this exhibition is particularly significant, as South Korea currently faces global attention due to the recent emergency declaration of martial law and concerns over a potential departure from the democratic stability of the past four decades. Bong-Jun's art, a cornerstone of the 1980's Democracy movement serves as a timely juxtaposition against the backdrop of current events. His work, serves as a powerful reminder of the struggles and sacrifices made to protect democracy, offering lessons for the present and the future. Kim Bong-Jun’s first U.S. solo exhibition is not just a showcase of his art but a reminder of the cost of democracy and the courage it requires to defend it. At a time when democracy is under threat globally, this exhibition highlights the importance of remembering the past and protecting the ideals of justice and freedom for the future. About the Exhibition: Bong Jun Kim: RetrospectiveDecember 19, 2024 - January 10, 2025 (11am-6pm Tuesday-Friday) Bong Jun Kim graduated from Hongik University in 1979 with a degree in sculpture amidst Korea’s political upheaval. His art emerged as a voice against state violence, expressing solidarity with farmers and labor unions while championing peace, human rights, and democracy. After the 1980 Gwangju Democratization Movement, where he became a wanted dissident, Kim’s experiences fueled his dedication to art that speaks for the people. Exploring visual expressions rooted in “Asian brush” techniques and the vibrancy of folk culture, Kim revived Joseon-era aesthetics through Buddhist and folk-inspired artworks, blending tradition with modern narratives. His notable work, The Spring Fight, exhibited at the Queens Museum in New York, showcases his commitment to democratic ideals and peace. Now, with a vision of showcasing K-art internationally, Bong Jun Kim aims to bring his blend of Korean cultural depth and global modernist influence to the U.S. through diverse media, embodying a unique East-West artistic fusion.
