Now displaying: October, 2017

The news corporate media won't touch, stories from the front lines of our movements to fight and build and just a dash of spoken word, visual art and snark. Blend and enjoy.

This week:

From the military occupation of Puerto Rico to the sick reality show courtship of Amazon, we've got some headlines that you may not have heard about but need to.

Next up, Big Brother is watching you – but you can still find ways of accessing the internet without turning the spotlight on.

Finally, we talk to Minds co-founder Bill Ottman about free speech, hate speech and the hopeful rise of alternatives in a Facebook dominated age.

This week on Act Out, can you see me from your digital filter bubble? The scary thing is you probably don't even realize that everything you see online is in fact filtered. We dive into the various kinds of online censorship that are shaping our ever-more-narrowed world view.

Up next, what women learn – from the patriarchy's ills and finally, No NAFTA – a ghost from trade deals past is back – and so is the fight for fair trade over free trade.

This week on Act Out!

why Indigenous People's Day matters: decolonizing the mind, the power of language, ideas and shifting paradigms.

Next up, there's an epidemic in this country of horrendous proportions – and yet you may not have heard about it. We talk about the recently introduced Savanna's Act and raising awareness for stolen sisters.

Finally, Mohawk filmmaker Paulette Moore heads back to Standing Rock and joins us to talk Indigenous movements, healing, strategizing and the eagle and the condor.

This week on Act Out!

From the streets of DC to the front lines of disaster capitalism relief, we're sharing and highlighting the power and inspiration of people coming together, working together and getting it done.

The March for Black Women and the March for Racial Justice spread joy, power and fight through the streets of DC this past weekend and we'll give you a glimpse of the action.

Next up, Bobby Rodrigo shows how we do better in the aftermath of disasters via mutual aid and community organized relief efforts.
