Unmasking Imperialism Unmasking Imperialism

Exposing Hollywood's collusion with U.S. imperialism. During today's episode, we examine the role of celebrities in supporting regime change operations abroad, such as those being carried out against Iran, Russia, China, and Cuba. We discuss the weaponization and tokenization of Black and Brown people for U.S. imperialism. We also expose how the imperialists have subverted music, television, and film to promote the agendas of the small, international financial ruling class. Lastly, we discuss revolutionary African, Indigenous, and Global South movements that provide the antidote to liberal U.S. mainstream media. Today's guest is Dr. Charisse Burden-Stelly, Associate Professor of African-American Studies at Wayne State University and a member of the Black Alliance for Peace Research & Political Education Team. She is the co-author of "W.E.B. Du Bois: A Life in American History," the co-editor of "Organize, Fight, Win: Black Communist Women's Political Writing" and the co-editor of "Reproducing Domination: On the Caribbean Postcolonial State."
