Act Out! [147] - No Sanctuary: From Mothers to Mayors, Rules for Radicals & Under the Influence w/ Tarbell
Wed, 2/7/2018

This week on Act Out!, elected officials could be the next group of people rounded up and thrown in a cell.

Meanwhile, U.S. residents who have lived here longer than I've been alive find themselves targeted for deportation.

Next up, if you want to organize in the face of rising fascism, some rules for radicals could aid you in your work. And finally, Wendell Potter, a former health industry big-wig, unveils his project to expose and deconstruct the corporatocracy.
