In Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Chris Hedges and award winning cartoonist Joe Sacco bring us a searing on-the-ground report on the crisis gripping underclass America and crime-ridden poverty enclavesin prisons, urban slums, and rural communitiesmetastasizing around the nation. With unemployment and underemployment combined at far over ten percent, as Congress proposes to slash Medicare and Medicaid, Food Stamps, Pell Grants, Social Security, and other social services, Hedges and Sacco warn of a bleak near futurewhere cities and states fall easily into bankruptcy, neofeudalism reigns, and the nations working and middle classes are decimated. A shocking report from the frontlines of poverty in America, Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt is a clarion call for reform.
