“America’s Social Hell”
“This is Kabir’s America. It is our America. And our shame.”

This piece by Chris Hedges is one of the most powerful I’ve ever read.
It perfectly sums up a man’s broken life and the sorrowful world he inhabits with words that almost make you feel and see and smell its details.
It resembles a dirge for America.
I’m writing this with tears in my eyes, and I think I have to stop.
