"Democracy Now" host Amy Goodman and award-winning journalist Chris Hedges appeared on Tuesday's "Charlie Rose" to discuss the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Goodman: "it is catching on like wildfire. We are seeing something like we haven't seen before except decades ago with the civil rights movement, the anti-war movement...it is hot right now."

Rose: "Could it be, in your judgment, a new American Revolution?"
Goodman: "Oh, I think it is happening as we speak. It's already changed so many people, given so many people hope."

Hedges: "These people are very clear about what they want, and what they want is an end to the corporate coup d'etat that has been carried out. ...We cannot sustain ourselves, both not only as a society but even as a species, if we don't confront the corporate state. I think it is a return to sanity."

Goodman: "The strength is that people feel empowered. Corporate America has a problem when so many people have been disempowered and left out of the system...they see all of these issues as linked." -Vimeo
