Hope's Daughters: Anger and Courage

The words of this speech given by Chris Hedges at Furman University in South Carolina on Wednesday 28 May are about as clear an explanation as ever been made concerning the corporate takeover of the United States and the clear economic decline of the citizenry that has been underway for going on 30 years. The speech includes a very broad historical background and gives one an understanding why life has gotten worse for most. Can this powerful negatively downward trend be reversed ? Hedges offers a framework in this speech. It is possible, but only will become probable with the elimination from public office on all levels of the treacherous agents in government dedicated to the power and greed of the Corporacy who have facilitated it. The biggest questions are if enough Americans have the courage to do so, or even if they care or understand enough to even try.
