The End of Occupy Radio

 

That clip you just heard was March 14th, 2012, Occupiers. Left Out became Occupy Radio, and in the four years since, we’ve kept an eye on the corporate takeover of America, and the rise of the police and surveillance states.

 

Join us for a final retrospective on the time Rivera and I have shared, on this final episode of Occupy Radio.

Jeff Clements

Author of the book: Corporations Are Not People

Immediately, after the 2010 Citizens United ruling, author Jeff Clements published a series of predictions about the decision's impact. Three year later, his projections have come true. This week on Occupy Radio, we interview Clements about the updates to his book, Corporations Are Not People, and one thing he didn't foresee - the widespread, determined citizen opposition to corporate personhood.

Community Organizer for strategic nonviolent civil resistance

and a contributor to numerous journals and publication on movement-building and nonviolent organizing.

Frackers tried to move into Quebec’s St. Lawrence River Valley, and they were chased back out again by an activated populace. But one victory isn’t enough. With a grassroots surveillance system set up throughout the valley, the Anti-Frackers will know as soon as the industry tries to make its return.
