In his latest book, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author Chris Hedges takes a look at the tensions that arise between profit, progress, technology and the pursuit of the American dream. Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt, written with co-author Joe Sacco, critiques an economic system that they say abandons too many Americans.
NPR's Neal Conan talks with Hedges about the book and the signs of hope he finds in social movements like Occupy Wall Street.
