Stop Signs: Cars & Capitalism on the Road to Economic,
Social and Ecological Decay.
Wednesday June 22nd, 7:30pm
92 Pike Street, Seattle, WA.
"...an anti-car road-trip story..."
In North America, human beings have become enthralled by the
automobile: A quarter of our working lives are spent paying for them;
communities fight each other for the right to build more of them; our
cities have been torn down, remade and planned with their needs as the
overriding concern; wars are fought to keep their fuel tanks
filled;songs are written to praise them; cathedrals are built to
worship them.
In Stop Signs: Cars and Capitalism on the Road to
Economic, Social and Ecological Decay, authors Bianca Mugyenyi and
Yves Engler argue that the automobile's ascendance is inextricably linked tocapitalism and involved corporate malfeasance, political intrigue,
backroom payoffs, media manipulation, racism, academic
corruption,third world coups, secret armies, environmental destruction
and war. An anti-car, road-trip story, Stop Signs is a must-read for
all those who wish to escape the clutches of auto domination.
