Chris Hedges: “Fascism in the Age of Trump”

November 10, 2017 @ 7:00 pm 10:00 pm EST

Pulitzer prize-winning journalist and New York Times Best Selling author Chris Hedges is returning to the Sanctuary to speak about corporatism, government, and fascism in the age of Trump.

Following our WOOC 105.3 fundraiser vegan dinner, special guest Chris Hedges returns to The Sanctuary to speak about corporatism, government, and “Fascism in the age of Trump.” With experience varying from teaching at Princeton University to 15 years as a foreign correspondent for over 50 countries, Hedges’ work offers a unique and poignant perspective. We are so excited to have him return to our North Central Troy community!

The theologian James Cone, the father of Black Liberation Theology, preached the sermon along with Cornel West. The ordination was approved for his work in New Jersey prisons where Hedges has taught college credit courses for nearly a decade.” – truthdig.com
