COINTELPRO, American Government, & Capitalism: Spreading Imperialism & Preventing Black Liberation

Throughout history American Government has prevented black liberation through tools like COINTELPRO. They've also destroyed entire countries like Vietnam for capital & the sake of imperialism, but it never actually helped anyone in the US besides the powerful and wealthy. We also pay tribute to Trunell Price, the San Diego Black Panther Party Chairman who passed recently.

AMERICAN CULTURE: SYSTEMIC RACISM & POLITICAL EXTREMISM

AMERICAN CULTURE: SYSTEMIC RACISM & POLITICAL EXTREMISM

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin recently signed a military 'Stand Down' memo to address extremism, however it only requires military leaders to have one single day to lead "discussions". "Discussions" is vague, and how much is only one day going to help when racism and extremism in America are systemic & cultural?

SURVIVAL CHECKS AND BIDEN NOT ENDING FEDERAL PRIVATE PRISONS: MANIPULATION AND MISINFORMATION

Manipulation and misinformation continue by corporate media, rhetorical tools, and through inorganic growth.  


A Washington Post headline says "Biden orders end of federally run private prisons"; however, once you look at the details, he didn't really end them. People were also lied to about survival checks, and they don't appear to be coming any time soon, and are only supposed to be $1400.

2021: NEW YEAR & A POSSIBLE NEW HOST (Part 2)

It's a new year so we felt like we needed a new addition to the podcast that could provide a perspective we couldn't. Bizzy Balboa is an actively active activist, artist, podcaster (Get To Know Me Podcast), and entrepreneur. Her presence is much needed and greatly appreciated. It's her final decision if she'd like to join The Activated Podcast permanently as a host, but we hope everyone shows her some love in the meantime to help her decision to accept!

SAN DIEGO COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES SECRETLY SPENT $100 MILLION ON TECH & TACTICAL EQUIPMENT

SAN DIEGO COUNTY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES SECRETLY SPENT $100 MILLION ON TECH & TACTICAL EQUIPMENT

La Prensa San Diego recently released an article detailing how San Diego County law enforcement and fire agencies have secretly run a local committee without public knowledge that has spent at least $100 million on armored vehicles, facial recognition technology, license plate readers, drones, riot gear, and other security equipment. 


Art Castañares (publisher/editor-at-large of La Prensa) joined us to discuss how the San Diego Urban Area Working Group (comprised of a police or fire department representative from each of the 18 cities in the county) has received and disbursed funds from federal grants given by DHS since around 2008, all without public knowledge and odd city council votes.


 According to La Prensa, "When the UAWG was created in 2008, the group deemed itself exempt from the California Public Records Act (CPRA), the state law which declares that “access to information concerning the conduct of the people’s business is a fundamental and necessary right of every person in this state.”.  This is an episode you don't want to miss out on hearing!

CALIFORNIA AND OREGON FIRES, DISINFORMATION CAMPAIGNS, AND QANON

In this episode:


Fires have been raging across California, Oregon, Washington, Montana, and Colorado. Vigilante groups have been setting up checkpoints across Oregon, and are spreading lies that ANTIFA started the fires and are looting. Trump lied to the American people about Coronavirus even though he knew the impacts it would cause to the country. Disinformation campaigns have been altering our reality, and Qanon is a cult.
