The Last Cargo Cult

Groundbreaking monologist Mike Daisey comes to Atlanta with the story of his journey to a remote South Pacific island whose people worship America and its cargo. This narrative is woven against a searing examination of the international financial crisis that gripped the globe at the same moment. Confronting the financial system that dominates our world, Daisey wrestles with the largest questions of what the collapse means, and what it can tell us about our deepest values. Part adventure story and… Show more part memoir, he explores each culture to unearth a human truth between the seemingly primitive and achingly modern.
