In a fiery post-Inauguration speech, Chris Hedges calls for resistance--not just to Trump but to the whole corrupt and oppressive system. Then KD reads a similar though milder short essay by Bernie Sanders. In-between: an appropriate song by Ethan Miller and Kate Boverman.
Thanks to Wilton Vought (othervoicesotherchoices.com), who recorded Hedges in Washington, D.C., on January 21, 2017. Sanders op-ed essay (which I have slightly condensed) was published in newspapers in late June 2016.
Thanks too to Chazk/Virtual Renderings for Miller & Bovermans "Song for the Unnamed Capitalist."
