More code would help. What you have shown looks fine. What does
func_thread() do? How do you know it isn't doing it? Here is a very
simple, working example based on your code:
import threading, time
def func_thread():
while True:
print 'threading'
time.sleep(1)
new_thread = threading.Thread(target = func_thread)
new_thread.start()
print "main thread going away now"
