Happy Thursday Sir,
Wow, so they finally let you back on mainstream media again.
Isn't this where you said "if we had a functioning public broadcasting system would be on probably late at night?"
You sir are destined to make C-SPAN a functioning public broadcasting system again.
LOL
Hopefully they'll keep you coming back for more insights since you write a lot.
Seriously though, kudos to you sir and congrats on returning to the airwaves where you belong.
Happy New Year!
I don't want to be incarcerated - but I sure would love to take a class from Chris Hedges! I always learn something when I read and listen to him. How can we get more college programs into prisons? Out of 100 plus of your students finishing their BA with a recidivism rate of 1% is astonishing evidence of the values of education for the inmates and the citizenry. What are the groups/entities who are the biggest obstacles to a major infusion of literacy, GED, and college programs in prison? And who/what are the toughest entities against opening up job and housing opportunities for ex convicts? Wherever the Whole Foods is that Kabir was fired from ought to be targeted by substantial customer protest. He proved himself and then because of the cold inflexible mentality of the store manager he got fired because his prison record showed up in a report and apparently the "un" wholeness of (un)Whole Foods has a rule against ex prisoners working for them. That's gotta change.
