control of the us media and what happens on the streets. these are the questions i . discuss with political activist. that's next right here. actually sitting down with m. one from underground political hip hop duo dead prez and one thanks so much for joining us today thank you i want to get started with a topic that you touched upon a lot in your lyrics and that's corporate ownership of the media in the united
8:32 am
states for three arise how does that affect what american see on t.v. and why is that a bad thing often it's on because the people who have the most interest and or the people who are the corporate ownership itself their interest. conflict directly with where the reality of the majority of the masses of the people are so you have this very popular song called propaganda and there's a sentence in there that reads you can't fool all of the people all of the time but if you fools of right ones the rest will fall behind yeah i want to ask you has that happened and who was fooling the people i bet if you if you read in propaganda one hundred one you know media one o one these words are probably ingrained in stone because this seems to be the montra you know by which you know media was born in this country out of a kind of the steps in the line that has the interest of the ruling class once again the bottom line media. and they mean for the people would be big
8:33 am
government who has an interest in making sure that even though bomb to being dropped and in many other countries in the interest of oil in dollars and and control that we may maintain focus on a soap opera type relationship between people who are pretty trivial when it boils down to basic needs of food clothes i sell to every day well whose interests. are the media more interested in representing in their news coverage is it the corporations is it the government is it who is it who is the main kind of entity the media sleeps with well let's be clear you know the media is the right hand of the ruling class it is the voice of the ruling class in this particular country of which we would say less than ten percent own ninety percent of the wealth and resources so this arm this propaganda arm of the ruling class does represent
8:34 am
corporation it does represent government if there can be government because the so-called democracy is run by dollars you know it is the political campaigns where they spin millions upon millions of dollars i mean almost if you think about it wastefully so it is the ruling class interest that the media represents in the name of the corporations in america being going to the biggest corporations when one of your songs you say the democrats and the republicans are two sides of the same coin does that mean. you think that obama is just a continuation of george bush obama. representing capitalism being just a continuation of george bush isn't understood. you have a system which was built of the slave of african people to reverse the birth of this economy it gave birth to not only what's happening here domestically but around the world which is what we call today including george bush was only a toggle in the engine you have. hussein obama as also a cogged meaning
8:35 am
a small part of the machinery that works the system the same old kind of a rule that happen across the country is still happening in the same or way but represented by a face more familiar face that is usually associated with the or pressed and poor people so it is important to maintain the kind of programs in campaigns that continuation of even more spending on war was what obama's doing then what bush has done in his previous presidency in his tenure we have more. empty promises to the poor oppressed people especially the mexican people who along the borders are being hunted down brutally like animals against even the basic human rights these are promises that barack obama and george bush were able to make to these people in an empty way and not come up with any solutions and yet still the same practice
8:36 am
happens today if not in a more exacerbated fashion i want to talk to you about the events in egypt the poverty of the people that led to these uprisings do you think the u.s. political elite should be fearful that something similar could come here i think the conditions are ripe. for there to be uprisings in the same manner because the same set of conditions that existed in cairo exist in new york city exist in miami florida they exist in los angeles you have a ruling class with abuse of power i was recently in cairo. and i was there on a humanitarian aid mission to help the people in gaza in order for us to get to gaza we had to jump through so much bureaucracy and we began to understand that not only did egypt's government what was it controlled by bureaucratic politicians in egypt but israel had a huge stake in making sure that the state of egypt was the way that it was
8:37 am
maintained. and that is definitely the situation in the streets look at what we have inside the united states we have young african black and brown subjects community colonial subject being sat down in the street in an obsessive kind of way fifty shots sixty shots laying on our stomach in our back as we run or as we walk or flee in retreat from the scene this is an abuse of power which is a powder keg upon which we sit in on and we've discussed our already the jobless rate we've discussed already the idea that there's a crisis even in the ideology of america and who will be the next to lead so there isn't a competition about that happening as well and people are are charged people are charged and awaiting to jump into action i want to talk to you about you mentioned a little bit of the issue of police brutality how big is the scope for your police terror is an instrument of the state used to coerce young people is
8:38 am
a fear mechanism but the police state is the control of the resources. control of health care the stifling of education the. current situation of of the economy. the government the legislation and us not being able to put policy real policy that's meaningful into people's lives and make it make fits so that we can daily lives are affected this is police state and the police are just instruments and coersion of the state so that the military play the poor play a part there are so many ways that the police state is implemented if said the ruling elite is one of the bigger problems as to why you know the working classes in trouble and really struggling right now and you have a song called know your enemy who is the main enemy of the common american people a main enemy is ignorance not a proper political education this is the enemy of our people because once we can
8:39 am
understand diagnosed. what we are living under all human beings who recognize that me and you have human rights will fight for the rights of human beings the way we are being governed mel treats a good sector of our people less than human. less than human in this country nothing short of revolution but there's so many steps this so many steps and empowerment of our people and the enemy out of this particular time that we're in is lack of information and political education i want to switch gears actually a little bit and ask you about the way the united states interacts with other countries do you think the u.s. has too much power over other countries or tries to have too much power and really getting in the affairs of the businesses of other nations out there who deserve to make their own decisions what's your take on this kind of foreign policy exchange that goes on oh it is power is he who controls imperialism the belly of
8:40 am
imperialism is born at the birth of capitalism in this country through and slave africa and its resources which are still being siphoned out of africa and into the world today despite the world media tirade against africa put trade it as this third world place to be this has been the number one place that people have been siphoning resources from for five hundred years power comes from the barrel of a gun and so as many bombs as they can point at whatever foreign country that it plans to control is is reading this and willingness to take this area i don't know care of as iran iraq afghanistan. palestine. so malia darfur darfur south africa. venezuela colombia many places in mexico we see the same tentacles of u.s.

only place where we compete on a ramp in the center of a huge city it's psychologically very difficult so it's a very special victory. russian freestyle skiers might not be among the sport's elite just yet however their country is one of the leaders in making this spectacular show the favorite for the fans it was the third time that moscow has hosted the world cup stage no easy thing given that the russian capital sits on almost entirely flats arraign you can't move mountains but in the organizational terms that's what happens with the construction of a huge ramp right in gorky park in the city center and it certainly ramps up the interest among spectators with flocking to the venue it's incredible it's impressive what they've been able to do you know the manpower and everything just building up a sado. scaffold they were on the council they were taking a little rickety elevator all the way up to the top that everybody just like. thank you no but it's pretty impressive the russian stage of the freestyle skiing world
