Act Out! Episode 6 - anti-war, pro-woman, dirty words & dirty wars feat. Katie Goodman and Medea Benjamin
Wed, 4/8/2015
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

In this week’s episode of Act Out! Eleanor leads you through dirty words and dirty wars, starting with an uncomfortable discussion of lady parts and culminating in a group mantra. Next up, she talks feminism: the misconstrued plus the good and funny truths about this movement, showcasing musical satirist Katie Goodman and her latest viral song, “Sorry Babe, You’re a Feminist.”

Dirty Wars digs into the depths of America's global crusade and shows us the power of film and books, particularly when they’re life size. Medea Benjamin, co-founder of Code Pink, joins the show to talk Iran, anti-war activism and the future of diplomacy in the military industrial complex. Finally, Eleanor gets philosophical on extremism before giving you an anti-war digital toolkit.
