Fighting For Julian Assange and Free Speech with Zain Raza The Business Artist Podcast
-
- Entrepreneurship
We are currently experiencing a historic moment in history. Covid-19 is impacting the whole planet. Many countries and regions are under lockdown and implement new laws in rapid speed. Denmark has already decided on mandatory vaccination and a number of countries have executed or are planning for cellphone tracking and use of the “Corona app”. The fear of many is that this could lead into an Orwellian State with full control over the people. At the same time, we are experiencing the inevitable economic collapse in fast motion. It is already clear today, that the world after Corona will be a world totally different to the world before. In times like this, it is important to be calm, awake and to choose love instead of fear. In this episode, I talk to a very brave man, to Zain Raza, the founder of actTVism.
Launched in 2013, this non-profit movement now has a 30-strong team of volunteer journalists, videographers, translators, event organizers and administrators. acTVism has interviewed Edward Snowden, Noam Chomsky, Pulitzer prize-winning journalist Glenn Greenwald, Abby Martin and many more. Additionally, the movement is currently fighting for the freedom of Julian Assange and thereby for the freedom of the press.
