Author Talk: Chuck Collins on "Burned By Billionaires"

Join author Chuck Collins for a reading from his new book Burned by Billionaires! Burned by Billionaires is a scathing exposé of the hidden impact of America’s ultra-wealthy on our social, economic, political, and ecological landscape. The book illustrates how the growing concentration of wealth and power undermines every aspect of our personal lives –including our health, housing costs, political participation, and environment. Chuck Collins is a senior scholar at the Institute for Policy Studies where he co-edits Inequality.org. He is the author of several books, including Born on Third Base, The Wealth Hoarders, Wealth and Our Commonwealth (with Bill Gates Sr), and Economic Apartheid in America and Burned by Billionaires (both from The New Press). He lives in Vermont.
