Masks of Anarchy tells the extraordinary story of Percy Shelley's poem "The Masque of Anarchy," from its conception in Italy and suppression in England to the moment it became a catalyst for protest among New York City workers a century later. Shelley penned the poem in 1819, after hearing of the Peterloo Massacre, where British cavalry charged peaceful political demonstrators near Manchester.
