Amy Goodman
Acerca de esta escucha
A celebration of the acclaimed news program Democracy Now! and the extraordinary heroes who have moved our democracy forward.
In 1996 Amy Goodman started a radio show called Democracy Now! to focus on the issues that are underreported or ignored by mainstream news coverage. Shortly after September 11, 2001, they were broadcasting on television every weekday. Today it is the only public media in the US that airs simultaneously on satellite and cable television, radio, and the Internet. Now Amy and her journalist brother, David, share stories of the progressive heroes - the whistleblowers, the organizers, the protestors - who have brought about remarkable, often invisible change over the last two decades in seismic ways.
This book looks back over the past 20 years of Democracy Now! and considers that as the courts and government abdicate their responsibilities, it has fallen to ordinary people to hold the powerful to account. Amy gives voice to these leaderful - not leaderless - movements: the countless charismatic leaders who are taking to the streets in Ferguson, Staten Island, Wall Street, and other places where people are rising up to demand justice. This is the guiding principle of Democracy Now!, which is front and center in this powerful, important work.

In The Exception to the Rulers, award-winning journalists Amy and David Goodman expose the lies, corruption, and crimes of the power elite, an elite bolstered by large media conglomerates. Her goal is “to go where the silence is, to give voice to the silenced majority.” This audiobook includes numerous archival audio excerpts, including statements from filmmaker Michael Moore, civil liberties victims describing their harrowing ordeals in the United States after 9/11, and more.

It’s OK to be angry about capitalism. Reflecting on our turbulent times, Senator Bernie Sanders takes on the billionaire class and speaks blunt truths about our country’s failure to address the destructive nature of a system that is fueled by uncontrolled greed and rigidly committed to prioritizing corporate profits over the needs of ordinary Americans.

Inspired by her research for the hit podcast Ultra, Rachel Maddow charts the rise of a wild American strain of authoritarianism that has been alive on the far-right edge of our politics for the better part of a century. Before and even after our troops had begun fighting abroad in World War II, a clandestine network flooded the country with disinformation aimed at sapping the strength of the U.S. war effort and persuading Americans that our natural alliance was with the Axis, not against it.

What if you woke up one morning and found you’d acquired another self—a double who was almost you and yet not you at all? What if that double shared many of your preoccupations but, in a twisted, upside-down way, furthered the very causes you’d devoted your life to fighting against? Not long ago, the celebrated activist and public intellectual Naomi Klein had just such an experience—she was confronted with a doppelganger whose views she found abhorrent but whose name and public persona were sufficiently similar to her own that many people got confused about who was who.

This is a chilling and deeply researched early warning to the nation from a counterterrorism intelligence professional: America is primed for a possible explosive wave of terrorist attacks and armed confrontations that aim to bring about a Donald Trump led dictatorship.

Ann Coulter is back, more fearless than ever. In Adios, America she touches the third rail in American politics, attacking the immigration issue head-on and flying in the face of La Raza, the Democrats, a media determined to cover up immigrants' crimes, churches that get paid by the government for their "charity," and greedy Republican businessmen and campaign consultants - all of whom are profiting handsomely from mass immigration that's tearing the country apart.

Ben Shapiro uncovers the simple strategy used by liberals and their friends in the media: bully the living hell out of conservatives. Play the race card, the class card, the sexism card. Use any and every means at your disposal to demonize your opposition - to shut them up. Then pretend that such bullying is justified because, after all, conservatives are the true bullies and need to be taught a lesson for their intolerance.

William Barr’s first tenure as attorney general under President George H.W. Bush was largely the result of chance, while his second tenure under President Donald Trump a deliberate and difficult choice. In this candid memoir, Barr takes listeners behind the scenes during seminal moments of the 1990s, from the LA riots to Pan Am 103 and Iran Contra. Thirty years later, Barr faced an unrelenting barrage of issues, such as Russiagate, the COVID outbreak, civil unrest, the impeachments, and the 2020 election fallout.

But it was not by the power of one man alone that these ideas gained new power. Republic of Lies looks beyond the caricatures of conspiracy theorists to explain their tenacity.

Drawing on fifteen years of both academic and firsthand field research, Dr. Rachel Kleinfeld documents the unambiguous measures that societies have taken to empower the strong civic movements, governments, and institutions that protect countries and mitigate atrocities that damage people's lives.

Unlike the Civil Rights Movement that called for full citizenship rights for blacks within the US, the Black Panther Party rejected the legitimacy of the US government and positioned itself as part of a global struggle against American imperialism.

Historia
America has become increasingly divided and polarized in recent years. With growing animosity toward law enforcement professionals, government corruption, disregard for the constitution, and racial tension thanks to the media and hate groups, there seems to be no easy answer in sight. But Sheriff David Clarke knows where we must begin. We must stop blaming others and take ownership of our families, communities, and country.

Historia
Ben Shapiro uncovers the simple strategy used by liberals and their friends in the media: bully the living hell out of conservatives. Play the race card, the class card, the sexism card. Use any and every means at your disposal to demonize your opposition - to shut them up. Then pretend that such bullying is justified because, after all, conservatives are the true bullies and need to be taught a lesson for their intolerance.

Today, Americans are debating our criminal justice system with new urgency. Mass incarceration and aggressive police tactics - and their impact on people of color - are feeding outrage and a consensus that something must be done. But what if we only know half the story? In Locking Up Our Own, the Yale legal scholar and former public defender James Forman Jr. weighs the tragic role that some African Americans themselves played in escalating the war on crime.

Better subtitle: the liberal platform
Came across as more of a Liberal Platform Explained With Anecdotes rather than Stories from the Trenches, I thought. (Exception- the epilogue has a real story from the trench, stick around for that.) I like Amy Goodman & I have a liberal bent, and so I liked this book. To be fair though, Amy, I'm not sure you are completely succeeding in your mission to give voice to the voiceless: there are no conservative voices.

Everyone needs to read this book.
Love Amy Goodman and Democracy Now! If only our MSM was even half as truthful. I thought I had a pretty good grasp on events over the last 20 years. The more I learn, the more I can't ever go back to my naive bubble.

Breathtaking Truth
What made the experience of listening to Democracy Now! the most enjoyable?
The historical imperative, the depth of research and knowledge, the scope of the stories, the breath of the topics, the sense that you were listening to a true reporter who was on the scene for many of the stories. Stories that the main stream media had overlooked, either purposely or because they discounted the importance of the story; such as the massacre in 1991 in East Timor, the real story of whistleblowers such as Julian Asange and Edward Snowden, the extensive murders of unarmed African Americans by mostly, white police, the courage of people who are opposing arctic drilling by Russia, the struggle to reveal the truth about climate change and the unconscionable complicity of the American Psychological Association with the US Military in sanctioning torture.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Democracy Now!?
There are so many, but the one that really sticks out is the story about Troy Anthony Davis, a clearly wrongfully convicted African American who was executed because itʻs ok to execute an innocent person as long as the process was followed. This was such a tragic incident and made one wonder how many persons have been wrongfully convicted and executed because of prejudice against African Americans.
Also the realization that WE the US of A are the greatest threat to world peace. WE are the neo Naziʻs. We beat them, but it was a devilʻs deal because we became them.
What does Amy Goodman bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She lived these stories. Her passion, understanding, clarity, is unparalleled. No reader except her could do justice to these stories. You donʻt get the sense that sheʻs reading. You get the sense that you are sitting in her den and she is telling you these stories. Recollecting them from her personal experience.
What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?
Tidbit? There are no tidbits in this book. It is one giant bite of the truth/knowledge apple after another. Every section of the book is packed with great stories, thoroughly researched and brilliantly presented. The book does leave one emotionally drained and also at times enraged.
Any additional comments?
Why Amy Goodman and Democracy now have not received a Peabody, a Pulitzer, Emmies or the Nobel Peace Prize is a testament to the bankruptcy of the establishment and itʻs values. Amy Goodman is one of our great journalists and certainly one of the most outstanding broadcast journalists ever. This book is one of the most important books of the year and should be read before the 2016 Democratic Convention by every delegate and then it should be read or heard by every American who will be voting in November.
Amy Goodman is like the Dorothy of American journalism. She pulls the curtain open on the mendacity all around us and reveals it for what it is. She points out conflicts of interest and uncovers the real story the main stream media misses. What a blessing she is and this book is.
