Professor Peter Dale Scott rejoins us to conclude the reading and discussion of his poem “A Ballad of Drugs and 9/11.” This poem was published in Flashpoints and it followed on the heels of Peter’s 2005 Lobster magazine article, “The Global Drug Meta-Group: Drugs, Managed Violence, and the Russian 9/11.”
Highlights of this episode include discussion of the Iran-Contra affair, the Christic Institute, Peter’s tenure in Washington working under Senator John Kerry to investigate BCCI, and a personal tale of intrigue and betrayal from this period.
This is the 23rd installment of our oral history series with the prolific poet, historian, and political theorist who gave us parapolitics as well as the deep politics approach.
Special thanks to Dana Chavarria for the sound engineering!
