Program Description: A no-holds barred, inciting and inspiring dialogue unfolds with America's most popular populist. Recorded in the valley below Jefferson's Monticello near Charlottesville, VA, Hightower wails with wit and wisdom, as he rips the Democrans and Republicrats and charges the corporate beast full on. He speaks of a government dominated by monied interests and driven by greed. Recovery of the vision and values that launched this nation and lots of downhome democracy are the antidote according to Hightower. 1 hour
He is the author of There's Nothing in the Middle of the Road but Yellow Stripes and Dead Armadillos (Harper Collins 1998) and If the Gods Had Meant Us to Vote, They'd Have Given Us Candidates (Harper Perennial 2001).
Topics explored in this dialogue:
What you can do in your community to make a difference
What is the good news
