Chris Hedges on the most taboo topics in America, with David Talbot.
The War on Terror is a profitable crusade against convenient enemies. βMuslim rageβ is an understandable response to US state terror. Rising oligarchy in America has made democracy a sham and turned the electoral process into an increasingly absurd circus. Police violence against minorities is part of a systematic effort to crush social discontent. Proliferating violence against womenβs health clinics is part of the war on womenβs bodies. Freedom of speech is an illusion, with government agencies and corporate media dictating acceptable boundaries of public discourse. Americaβs only hope is a revolution to create genuine structures of popular power.
This kind of insight into Americaβs deeply troubled current state cannot be found on television, in the pages of leading newspapers, or on Google News. Many of our most important thinkers are relegated to the shadows because their ideas are deemed too radicalβor trueβfor public consumption. Among these intellectual bomb throwers is Chris Hedges, who, after decades on the front lines, continues to confront power in America in the most incisive, challenging ways.
Hedgesβs unfettered conversation with Hot Books editorial director David Talbotβ founder of Salon and author of New York Times bestseller, The Devilβs Chessboard: Allen Dulles, the CIA and the Rise of Americaβs Secret Governmentβwill be the first in a series for Hot Books called βUnspeakable,β featuring some of the most important β and censored β voices in the world today.
