Detox on President’s Day Webinar with Chuck Collins

ByBCM Online

On Feb 17 2025 we hosted our “Detox on President’s Day” free webinar. Ched Myers talked about his latest book, Healing Affluenza and Resisting Plutocracy: Luke’s Jesus and Sabbath Economics (HARP), and interviewed Chuck Collins of inequality.org. Chuck is the foremost critic of plutocracy in the U.S., and wrote the Foreword to HARP (he’ll talk about his new book too!). Cover artist Ted Lyddon Hatten was also on our call and gave us some insights into the creation of the beautiful cover to HARP.
