With the number of Americans in poverty at its highest level since the 1960s, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges and cartoonist Joe Sacco chronicle poverty's advance in four areas of the country -- a native American reservation, an impoverished New Jersey city, a rural mining region, and the farms where migrant workers toil under harsh conditions. Hedge's vivid commentary and Sacco's trenchant illustrations are published in Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt by Nation Books. Original airdate 11/29/12
