A film by Michael Sosebee for Occupy
submitted by Gabrielle Price
On June 28, 2012 Chris Hedges gave an historic talk to a sold-out audience at the Immanuel Presbyterian Church, in Los Angeles, California. In this final installment, Chris talks about the struggles of the working class and poor of America who are losing unemployment benefits, their homes and food stamps. He speaks about grassroots movements, his arrest in DC, the birth of Occupy, their demands and his successful law suit against President Obama's unconstitutional NDAA law.
My personal thanks to Michael Sosebee for sharing this beautifully filmed footage with TRC and I applaud him for his integrity in gifting Chris's important words and historical message to Occupy and its supporters.

TRC features media analysis, social critiques and spiritual refreshments focused on the socio/cultural impacts of a post-9/11, post-carbon, ponzi scheme world teetering on the edge of mass awakening or mutually assured destruction.

- Comments that criticize any class of people as a whole, especially when based on an attribute they don't have control over
- Comments that explicitly call for violence
- Comments with links to third party sites that are not relevant to the content of the conversation. No spam.
- Because we moderate comments does not mean we do not have a sense of humor. The Royal 'We', you know, the editorial...
- Just...you know...take it easy, man. We're all in this together.
