A New Age Of Revolt And Rebellion
The Implosion of Global Capitalism
By Chris Hedges
May 29, 2015 "Information
Clearing House" - Chris Hedges delivers a stark and
urgent apprisal of the worldwide catastrophe that’s sure to come if the current
system isn’t confronted and forced to change.
Hedges
sketches out the alarming proportions of the problem to “The Next Debate” host
Rudyard Griffiths, chairman of the Munk Debates, in an audio interview posted on
Canadian news source The Globe and Mail’s
website.
In their discussion, which touches on a series of critical
topics Hedges covers in his
latest book, “Wages of Rebellion: The Moral Imperative of Revolt,” Griffiths
and Hedges discuss income inequality; the master-slave relationship between the
corporate state and purportedly “free” citizens in nations like the U.S. and
Canada; the movement to boost the minimum wage; the uprising against oppressive
and racist police forces in America; and climate change, among others.
In short, as Hedges puts it, “We live in a revolutionary
moment.” Hear his take on how we got to this point and what can be done, in the
