Requiem for the American Dream

Promotional photo

Requiem for the American Dream is about the growing inequality of wealth and power in America. In this 2015 documentary, intellectual/activist Noam Chomsky outlines a half century of policies that favor the very wealthy at the expense of the majority.

Discussion will be led by Jarrid Green of the Democracy Collaborative. This month’s program is planned by the Prince George’s County Peace & Justice Coalition. For more information contact or Lucy Duff at 301-577-2350.
