An Evening with Chris Hedges (now October 7th)

– The Philadelphia Inquirer

Join CHRIS HEDGES, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author of Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and The Triumph of Spectacle (Nation Books), as he charts the dramatic and disturbing rise of a post-literate America that craves fantasy, ecstasy and illusion.

October 7th, 7 p.m. 15th Street Friends Meeting House. 15 Rutherford Place (between 2nd and 3rd Ave). New York City.
