Morris Berman: Dark Ages in the U.S., Alternative Radio - Sun 7am

Morris Berman   [1]- From the boarded up storefronts to foreclosed homes to the homeless and unemployed, the signs of decay in the U.S. are all too apparent. The political class pretending to care about the 99% has little to offer beyond boilerplate rhetoric. Abroad, the imperial war machine grinds on. Meanwhile back in the homeland there are signs the servants are getting increasingly restless. Occupy Wall Street might rock the structures of power sufficiently to generate the radical change so urgently needed. Morris Berman is a cultural historian and critic. He has taught at universities in North America and Europe.
