The anthropologist and political activist David Graeber, writer of the book Debt: The First 5,000 Years, who was one of the early co-founders of the Occupy Movement and who coined its famous slogan ‘We Are the 99%’, appeared on Charlie Rose’s talk show on Bloomberg TV for a fascinating interview well worth sharing.
