Dec. 30, 2019, 12:12 p.m.
As people began seeing the elites' propaganda for what it is, new systems of social control were put into place. These included militarization of the police, new non-lethal weapons, a "prison-industrial complex," neutralizing the Bill of Rights, and CIA-supplied narcotics in the inner cities.
This is Part 3 of an audio tapestry woven by Robin Upton from Unwelcome Guests' archival material. It's a fine exploration of how the forces that run the world *actually* operate in practice. (Cont'd...)

The Ramez Naam Plan For De-Carbonization, Pt. 1 (re-broadcast)
Dec. 24, 2019, 3:10 p.m.
Whether or not we use the name Green New Deal to describe a set of aggressive long-term policies that will help humanity in the fight against climate change, most rational people agree that the status quo is completely unacceptable. The potential of a Green New Deal is that it could pave the way for some great minds to devise concrete proposals for reducing greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak with one of those great minds, Ramez Naam, a futurist and technologist whoâs crafted his own sort of Green New Deal. We delve into the nuts and bolts of Naamâs proposal and the problems itâs trying to solve, as he makes the case for why we may actually see bipartisan support for such a proposal.
Michael Parenti: Theocracy VS. Democracy - ARCHIVE
Dec. 24, 2019, 2:44 p.m.
Michael Parenti says that democracy can't survive under religious rule â whatever that religion may be. Parenti's warning in this archival recording is as timely and urgently expressed as it was when this speech was first given on April 12, 1987, during the second term of the Reagan administration.
This talk is also very funny. Parenti explains how God may be considered as a "founding father" and why Woody Allen calls him an underachiever. It is easy to extend this timeless analysis to the present circumstances.
With roots in a working class Italian district of New York City and a Ph.D. in political science from Yale Michael Parenti has become an internationally known writer and lecturer. He is the author of twenty-three books.
