Act Out! [40]: Audio Podcast - Thomas Paine, Recycled Propaganda, White Power & COP21

Act Out! [40]: Audio Podcast - Thomas Paine, Recycled Propaganda, White Power & COP21
Fri, 12/4/2015 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

This week, let's use some common sense and talk about the rights of man. Next up: Recycled Propaganda, pure white low life scum, grab a seat at the middle east dinner table, and from Paris to the globe, climate change can be slowed, if we make it so. But first, life is meaningless – like a blank page, so get a brush, a crayon, a pen and paint your way.

 
**NOTE: there won't be a podcast next week as we'll be in Paris covering the activist response to COP21. We will have a best-of episode the following week. In the meantime, stay up to date via occupy.com/actout

Green New Deal, Part VI: End Corporate Welfare Before It Kills Us
