⌚ Sun 21 September 2008  ☻Robert Jensen, Susan Rosenthal (reading)

Download Hour1 Download Hour2This week, we broadcast most of the discussion that followed last week's talk (The Old Future's Gone - Progressive Strategy Amid Cascading Crises) by Robert Jensen. In our second hour, we continue with our serial reading of Power and Powerlessness by Susan Rosenthal.

Over the past 5 weeks the readings have examined in details how the society we live was created, and how it has resulted in the domination of the many by the few, to the detriment of most people who are deliberately excluded from the most basic level of decision making. This week, we begin a new section that deals with why we put up with it - the mechanisms of social control.
