This forum unpacks some typical deceptions used by NEIU and other universities to support a neo-liberal agenda through budget slight of hand, obfuscation and intimidation.

The Nothing is Real Radio Hour: Junky Talk
Dec. 3, 2013, 3:32 p.m.
From Sam Sebren, "Listeners will hear a selection of actual answering machine messages from Pete, a heroin user for over 35 years, and also messages from his mother and various social workers, all of which paint a grim picture of the downward spiral which heroin often leads to for users, their families, and their communities. Heroin use is on the rise across suburban and rural America as well as in cities around the world, yet it's a topic that's mostly swept under the rug in family and community conversations. This program begins with a collage of clips from the past three years, taken from various small news channels and short documentaries about heroin. Expletives have been edited, however, this program may not be suitable for small children. Produced by Sam Sebren, creator of the NIRRH for Wave Farm's Transmission Arts programming on WGXC."

A Farewell to Justice by Joan Mellen (TWO of TWO)
Dec. 2, 2013, 9:13 p.m.
When Joan Mellen first gave this talk in 2006 at a release event for her book: Farewell to Justice, she put emphasis on the subtitle: the Case That Should Have Changed History. What New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison knew but was unable to prove in court, what Oliver Stone and his team researched for the 1991 film JFK and what Joan Mellen and a few other authors have now brought into evidence is the important and powerful role that the CIA played in the Kennedy assassination.
When Kennedy discovered what the CIA was doing behind his back, especially in Cuba and Vietnam, by planning interventions and full scale war and assassinating leaders, he tried to bring the CIA under control, cut its budget, and take the U2 spy program away from them. When he fired Allen Dulles, he made mortal enemies inside the CIA. Of all people Allen Dulles was allowed to serve on the Warren Commission.
