Episode 45 — They Don’t Want Witnesses

In this episode of Human Politics, Christi Chanelle explores what happens when watching becomes a threat.

From protest songs that warned us decades ago to the present-day arrests of journalists, legal observers, and protesters, this episode examines how power reacts when it’s being seen. Art has always told the truth first. Music has always carried movements forward. And now, cameras, phones, and witnesses are being treated like crimes.

Christi connects history, culture, and current events to her own lived experience—building community in a moment where fear is meant to isolate us. When power loses control of the narrative, it doesn’t debate. It intimidates.

This episode is about art as warning, community as protection, and why witnessing still matters—especially when they don’t want you doing it.
