Age of Betrayal
What the Media Doesn't Tell You host, Larry Velvel, interviews author Jack Beatty about his book, Age of Betrayal. Beatty's book centers on what was called the "Gilded Age," the latter decades of the 19th century in America. It was a time of both unparalleled opportunity and heinous discrimination and maltreatment of many. The discussion not only centers on this age, but on how it parallels our own time and how similarities in corporate manipulation have led to many of the same social ills that were extant in the late 1800's.
