"Crisis & Hope: Theirs and Ours"

On the forty-year anniversary of the publishing of his classic "American
Power & the New Mandarins," Noam Chomsky comes to the historic Riverside
Church in Harlem, New York City, to address a wide range of issues from
the global economic crisis, US military intervention in the Middle East
and South Asia, left electoral and social movement upsurges in places like
El-Salvador, Bolivia and Venezuela, and the election of Barack Obama.
Chomsky, whom The New York Times Book Review has called  "arguably the
most important intellectual alive," is the author of over 100 books
including in the last few years; What We Say Goes: Conversations on U.S.
Power in a Changing World, Failed States: The Abuse of Power and the
Assault on Democracy and Hegemony or Survival.

/Sliding scale: $20/$30/$50/$100+/

This is a special fundraiser event to ensure the survival of the Brecht Forum

during the current economic crisis, please donate what you can.
