🌏 Main Stream Media Exposed: American Journalist & Writer Talks About New Book, Exposes How Narratives Are Used to Manufacture Concent
One of the most important things to do in our day and age is to keep educating ourselves. It may not be a fun project because we might hear something that goes against what we were taught previously. However, that’s the entire point - we cannot grow if we limit ourselves.
This week I spoke to a prolific American writer, journalist, political analyst and activist Norman Solomon. We discussed his book War Made Invisible with an afterward on the war in Gaza.
Norman traces a consequential shift in American foreign policy that followed 9/11: a constant state of war that is almost entirely invisible to the American public.

The full interview is not on YouTube. It is available on Rumble, Substack, Patreon and Locals (no paywalls!).
