Everyone's a Terrorist with Michael Loadenthal
Episode description
Why is the government obsessed with framing leftist activists as terrorists? How can we understand this strategy in the context of recent U.S. movement history? Dr. Michael Loadenthal, antifascist data researcher and terrorism studies scholar, joins Outlaw to help answer these questions. Conversation topics include: how post-9/11 counter-terrorism policy shapes repression of social movements today, the Green Scare and the emergence of "domestic terrorism" and "eco-terrorism," the targeting of non-citizen student activists like Mahmoud Khalil, and much more. The episode closes with a brief update on the Stop Cop City criminal cases.
