Act Out! [43]: Audio Podcast - New Year's Edition

Act Out! [43]: Audio Podcast - New Year's Edition
Mon, 1/4/2016 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

For those of you who follow the TV show, you know that we didn't have a show this week. But I just couldn't let January 1st pass without a podcast so here, in lieu of the audio from the video show, are the words you missed.

A few select spoken word pieces that came before we started doing the podcast in week 23.

I name the episode that they're taken from so you can easily head to our YouTube page or our spoken word archive to see them in video form.

Here, I performed them live, one take, on a shitty mic in my living room - you know, guerilla style creative activism :)

Here's to a 2016 filled with creativity, activism and inspiration. 

Thanks for listening and keep acting out!

Journalists have a responsibility to plainly tell the truth about how truly different the Democrats and the Republicans are today, especially with both democracy and the rule of law at stake this November.

From Hungary and Poland to Italy and Spain, today's anti-abortionist movements are feeding one another—while also driving a growing counter-movement.

Agriculture, the service economy, sexual exploitation, manufacturing, construction and domestic work drive today's enslavement around the world.

Thanks to the Electoral College, leftists have perhaps the final say this November over whether democracy can hold on for at least another four years, or if fascism will take root and infect all facets of the federal government for decades to come.

What remains unknown is whether post-truth Republicans will succeed in 2024 as the Nazis did in 1933.

History shows there are no “one-day” dictatorships. When democracies fall, they typically fall completely.
