On December 3, James Gregory (History) will give a Katz Distinguished Lecture on how the West Coast became the "Left Coast." Appearing first in the 1980s, the term “Left Coast” has further underlined the significance of progressive and radical movements in the political systems and reputations of these states. Gregory will explore the history of West Coast radicalism and factors that have made it influential beyond what is common in other regions, including those with blue state traditions.
