Show Notes
We discuss the main goals of copaganda: narrowing our conception of safety and threat, constantly warning us that those harms are increasing, and telling us that the solution to our fears is more investment in the punishment bureaucracy.
Alec's civic action toolkit recommendations are:
-
Educate yourself on how copaganda works
-
Read the Copaganda book in a group!
Alec Karakatsanis is the founder and executive director of Civil Rights Corps and author of Copaganda: How Police and the Media Manipulate Our News.
