Writer and filmmaker Tariq Ali and film director Oliver Stone will continue their ongoing discourse about "forgotten—or deliberately buried—episodes" from American history, from the US intervention against the Russian Revolution to the ongoing interference of the United States in Pakistani political affairs.

In their recent public dialogue, On History, Oliver Stone asks, according to Jon Wiener, "smart questions about the rise and fall of the United States and its empire in the 20th century." In this conversation, the tables are turned as we ask Tariq Ali to kick off with some questions for Oliver Stone, leading into a conversation between them on politics, film, and the untold history of the nation.

Admission is $25 general, and $15 for Friends of the New York Public Library or seniors and students with valid ID.
