Chris Hedges on Occupy & the power of resistance: Culture Project Impact 2012 Festival

"Rebellion is not going to go away...What has been unleashed, I think, can't be stopped...We have unleashed forces within this society that will confront these corporate systems of power...The importance of continuing acts of resistance is that it keeps this narrative alive...We speak a fundamental truth about this system that terrifies them." - Chris Hedges, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist & author of "Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt", speaks about rebellion, Occupy, & the power of resistance at The Culture Project. This is a part of Culture Project's "Conversation on Economy", filmed on July 25, 2012 at the IMPACT Festival. The panel was moderated by Sam Seder and included Robert Johnson, Taylor Jo Isenberg, Patrick Markee, and included performances by The Civilians.
