Description
Short essay on social activist and champion for the rights of the poor in New York City, Urbain Ledoux, also known as "Mr. Zero." An introduction to the Canadian family from which Ledoux came, a brief biographical portrait of him and his early success in government, and a characterization of his tactical, arguably radical methods as a later advocate for social reform, individual reformation, and basic rights for those in need - particularly the unemployed and homeless men in downtown Manhattan, New York City, in the 1920s and 1930s.
