New World Notes - Amy Goodman in Cambridge (First of 2 parts)

This week on New World Notes: June 7, 2016, Tuesday from 12:00 to 12:30 p.m. (and on Wednesday from 8:30 to 9:00 p.m.), host Kenneth Dowst presents Part 1 a recent talk in Cambridge, MA, by journalist Amy Goodman, longtime host of Democracy Now!.

In this talk, Goodman tells stories that explore the corruption of the corporate media and that show ordinary people fighting back against the System--sometimes successfully.

In Part 1, many of her stories come from the recent past--specifically 2011. Highlights include the trial and execution of Troy Davis, popular rebellion in Wisconsin, Occupy Wall Street, and some memorable climate activism.

New World Notes is produced under the auspices (Latin for "gun") of WWUH-FM, a community service of the University of Hartford.
