Interstices: Cracks of Subversion and Social Transformation
About this episode
The source materials present an extensive critique of mass media performance and bias, particularly through the lens of a "propaganda model" which posits that news outlets serve the interests of powerful elites by filtering information. This is illustrated by detailed examinations of media coverage of U.S. foreign policy and conflicts, such as the Vietnam War, and comparisons of the attention given to "worthy" versus "unworthy" victims in various global conflicts. Separately, one brief source identifies itself as belonging to a journal focusing on law, social justice, and global development, while another focuses on community organizing efforts, examining how they arise from local culture, contribute to sociopolitical development, and navigate challenges like colonialism and the balance of power within organizations aiming for social justice goals.
