Curtis White discusses "The Barbaric Heart" Friday, Nov. 20 - 7pm Berkeley City College Auditorium 2050 Center Street, Berkeley (about 2 blocks from Downtown Berkeley BART) wheelchair accessible free and open to the public Curtis White is the author of ‘The Barbaric Heart: Faith, Money, and the Crisis of Nature" and "The Middle Mind: Why Americans Don't Think For Themselves" and other brain-expanding books. Smart, funny, and fresh, Curtis White argues that the present environmental crisis will not be resolved by the same forms of crony capitalism and managerial technocracy that created the crisis in the first place. With his trademark wit, he argues that the solution might very well come from an unexpected quarter: the arts, religion, and the realm of the imagination. "Witheringly smart, grotesquely funny, grimly comprehensive, and so moving as to be wrenching." - David Foster Wallace "Refreshing malevolent irony...absolutely indispensable" - Slavoj Zizek supported by KPFA Radio
