We need a damn debt jubilee, —but really to dismantle capitalism. We can do better.

A surprisingly difficult but interesting book. Stopped reading the end notes about 1/3rd of the way through because they were too divergent for me to keep grasp on the point of the chapters.

Check some of his YouTube videos. He’s very engaging and fun. The size is daunting, but I believe it’ll be worth it.
You could also start with some of his shorter work to sample.

don't read it. David Graeber is celebritized to the point that what he has released is nothing more than a confluence of masturbatory material for the scum central bankers. Read Griffins' Jekyll Island instead.

History is a cycle between billon economies and debt economies, it’s been a while, but I believe he associated the latter with slavery, and anticipates a resurgence in slavery-like institutions. I read this a while back, maybe someone who read it more recently could provide the specifics.
