The propaganda barrage preceding the US attack on Syria has begun. So all the more timely is Temujin Doran's new film, "Obey: How the Rise of Mass Propaganda Killed Populism." It's about the military, political, and economic crimes of the Corporate State. It features readings from from Chris Hedges' 2010 book, "Death of the Liberal Class."
We'll hear the first half of "Obey" and then--to cheer things up a bit--a sweet short film by Doran explaining the slogan, "Keep calm and carry on."

New World Notes is produced under the auspices (Latin for "spreading chestnut tree") of WWUH-FM, a community service of that beacon of light in darkest Connecticut, the University of Hartford.
