What do the Hollywood blacklist of the 1950s and today's cancel culture have in common? Join us as we explore the legacy of Elia Kazan, a director who faced severe backlash for naming names during the red scare, and compare it to modern cancel culture. Discover the stories of actors and writers, like Lee Grant and Dalton Trumbo, who managed to make a comeback despite being blacklisted and having years taken away from their careers.
Uncover the hidden world of the global power elite as we delve into Phillips' book Giants: The Global Power Elite, which analyzes the transnational capital class made up of 17 financial giants and their 199 directors. We'll discuss their connections to elite universities, the massive amounts of money they manage, and the non-governmental global elite policy planning organizations that shape our world. Plus, learn about the military and security apparatus employed for their investments, and the corporate media used for ideological justification.
Finally, we'll examine the humanitarian consequences of elite decisions - from investments in war and regime change to the exploitation of labor and the climate crisis. We'll question the absence of Chinese companies in this analysis and the potential for deception or deliberate propaganda. Don't miss this intriguing exploration of elite theory, power struggles, and deceptive propaganda in today's world.
