In the first part of the program, DC organizer Natacia Knapper joins Eleanor Goldfield to discuss Trump’s takeover of DC, what makes DC particularly vulnerable to such federal overreach, and what the situation is really like on the ground. Natacia highlights the problematic ways in which corporate media have framed the situation, and why people outside of DC need to be hyper-aware and vigilant because this overreach will not stop in DC. Next up, Mickey Huff sits down with one of Project Censored’s summer interns Jayden Henry to talk about his recent dispatch: Blood, Sweat, and Stitches: How Overconsumption Pushes Garment Workers to the Brink. Jayden discusses his research on this rarely covered topic and draws connections between the consumerist paradigm in the so-called imperial core and the extreme exploitation of workers in so-called periphery nations.
