Socialism in the City

​In October, violent unrest swept across France, with images of burning cars and looted shops spreading worldwide and similar protests also erupting in Spain, Portugal and Italy.

​The last time nationwide riots struck America was in 2020. But could New York conceivably be heading down a similar path?

​Join The Spectator for an exclusive evening with Heather Mac Donald, fellow at the Manhattan Institute, as she argues that socialism is spreading quickly across New York, threatening its very foundations.

​Through projected Democratic gains in the November 3 midterms, alongside NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s plans to scale back policing and introduce radical left-wing policies such as rent freezes and government-owned grocery stores, Mac Donald argues he could weaken public order, fuel wider unrest and ultimately steer the city toward socialism.
