Activist and New York Times bestselling author John Perkins's Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, which spent nearly a year and a half on the New York Times bestseller lists and has been published in more than 25 languages, is a startling exposé of international corruption. His new book, The Secret History of the American Empire, also a New York Times bestseller, details the clandestine operations that created the world's first truly global empire and provides a compassionate plan for turning this around, for crafting a world that future generations will be proud to inherit. John is a founder and board member of Dream Change and the Pachamama Alliance, nonprofit organizations devoted to creating a stable, sustainable, and peaceful world. He has lectured and taught at universities on four continents. John's courage in writing these books and speaking out against his former bosses exemplifies the courage shown by our Founding Fathers and Mothers when they stood up to the British Empire. Like them, John defied threats and bribes and took action. His courage serves as an example for all of us. As he proclaims at the end of Secret History, "Now is the time for us to change the world." << back to speakers |
