FROM CITIZEN TO ENEMY: How the State Kills Dissent
They say we have free speech—but history proves otherwise. From COINTELPRO to the Kent State massacre to today’s pro-Palestinian crackdowns, the state has always silenced dissent. This video breaks down how language is weaponized to criminalize protest, dehumanize activists, and justify state violence. How does the U.S. decide who gets free speech and who gets suppressed? And what does that mean for the future of resistance?
