government's completely hands off obviously this government's not going to be doing anything about it but the government's always been pretty much hands off except for the blacklisting era after that stopped the original blacklisting you know joseph mccarthy in the fifty's it was cointelpro somewhere in between rather than well france and yeah but it was the black listing for mean media the way to speak about how media treated me was that they were in fact paid often has been proven to to drag me to say bad things about me for the last twenty years fairly and you think you're just i mean in this story it is read read as until until the end about the ending i mean you had this one man to a brit cancer chrysalis records just describe his story and why he was one of the one light in your life he was a light cancer was somebody who helped me out of a bad situation and i saw hope for the future and then he was murdered still unsolved and that was there's

8:03 pm
back i'm still here with actor director and activist rose mcgowan another theme throughout the book is the need for can forward you know in just you know ideas but with the way one actually looks the surface just told me a bit about that hair color length particularly well something i found really interesting and that had to do with you know by a female agent in hollywood talent agent directly telling me that i had to have long hair otherwise the men in hollywood wouldn't want to she said it nastier terms but sleep with me and if they didn't want to sleep with me they wouldn't hire me and the thing is i knew she was right. nothing to do with the script writers nothing to do with the plot lines nothing but it is again that conformity and i think we've all seen that that hairdo was just three to blow dry that with the three twirls on that and it's like kind of classic hollywood hair and i do wonder
8:04 pm
when the look will stop it is i kind of took matters into my own hands. if you up. and kind of i i do a talk about it in the book i just i broke up with the world in a way the idea of the preconceived notion of what you're supposed to look like as a woman and i think she would look good or to call me this film director really. funnily enough. and you still believe that this is continuing today actors in hollywood if they're female have to conform to that there is very little leeway specially for anyone starting out well that's the whole thing there's a lot of leeway there's so much leeway but they don't know that they're trained out of thinking there's any leeway this is how it's been done is how it's always been done this is how we should do it and i just think it's not even a good system they're not even great businessman they could be making so much more money it's not even
8:05 pm
a if you can teach me to take what's special about people and massage it away until they're just an atomic time until they no longer know who they are what they are then what are you selling you're selling what you think someone should be and that person behind the scenes might not be somebody you want in your head. so it's not even capitalism or it's the fact they themselves are in the cold but internationally billions of people are influenced but that's the thing and people say you know do you hate hollywood. i hate that it goes out to the world i hate that that thought doesn't stay local. you know and there's there's obviously been seminal amazing films and cinema and all these things and it has done some good but i think overall i think on the balance so a lot of harm and obviously in the in the newspapers across the media we know about certain studio directors you just mentioned an agent but what is exactly the rule
8:06 pm
of a hollywood publicist people way to know burt lancaster in this week's road success what did they do an influence the billions of people in what they then may want to emulate aspire to and see in people what's usually somebody a publicist is meant to get you press or media or work usually with other higher ups to sell you to make you palatable and a lot of these people have just seen movies where they see publicists in the movies acting a certain way so they come and they act that way because they think that's how they're supposed to be so it's just kind of like this on and on like people in hollywood have seen movies about people in hollywood so they continue to behave that way even though there's no reason to not just be a person there's no reason to not be. free but the threat is you'll be dropped if you don't take their orders it's not a threat they do it. they they do it you don't want to get any reputation it's
8:07 pm
worse than you know high school girls sleeping with the boys it's like you don't want to reputation whatever you don't want a reputation so you do everything you can to not step out of line. and and that eventually just again it strips what's special about you away i mean friends some journalists are trying to interview some straws big surprise the publicists are in there pretty quickly to stop certain questions particularly ones of politics i should say or issues of war and peace. i don't know israel gaza you've been wild eyed interviews are so boring. tell you that control they don't want even stars don't have an opinion do not have an opinion no matter what you know do not have an opinion and i why not we're sorry but you get people on twitter that will say shut up and act or shut up i'm saying shut up and dance and i would say. no we are people too and i think the more that people in front of the camera really
8:08 pm
understand that they have a voice also. and people often get quite jealous of those i have a platform without realizing they were very hard for that platform i worked very hard to hang on to be sitting here today i work very hard at that why. some actors might have no thoughts on the matter some might have starts. their very infantilized and you get used to being coddled and told what to do where to sit how to look what to be i don't cotton to that kind of. direction. it's clearly. how big does one have to be before it gets the freedom natalie portman recently said she was supporting gaza robert redford has always been a big name and always talked about the military industrial complex warren beatty you have to be really concerned you have read that big to really have any kind of
8:09 pm
freedom or even they have strictures a place i think. well i mean. i'm sure that the men get a lot more leeway susan sarandon i think. by hollywood standards was kind of branded you know kind of kooky that's what they like to do if you have a personality or you have a specific point of view you're a kook or you're kind of unhinged. when it's ok to just be a person and have have a point of view it doesn't have to be anybody else's but it can be yours and i think if you're young and you're up and coming and you're making noise about gaza all of people above you will get very nervous because then you're going to get put in celebrity time so what i mean is that you know in the corner at lincoln so absurd is really a magazine celebrity i mean i mean you get your like a little kid you get your face in the corner until you get better it's the proverbial time out it's quite asinine to tell you the truth so my friends are for
8:10 pm
two people you mention in the book if we if we get away from the level of things maybe disappointed to know that robert rodriguez going to terra to you know seen as independent filmmaker is not that much different really do the corporate filmmakers not. know they are there are men with power. and in fact. i would think the corporate ones might have more oversight but. their oversight committee was hardly wants to. do would you go as there was the powerful say well justice was eventually people often have to just wait quietly. they had a hand and. quantum even so they all know. you know he knew about me he said it in an interview. you know they say the complexity machine is huge
8:11 pm
they're. going to talk about an industrial complex is one of complicity. and it's one of continually protecting people that aren't even that great in the first place so they're not. just clean out the crap so great things can come just cut off the head of the rot and let other things florus because we know it's all there we've all worked in those places where it would be so great if it weren't for that one person get rid of that one person. that it comes from the top down and the attitude of permissiveness imagine if your boss is a known rapist where you get to get away with pretty much everything right if there's so many other malcolm x. in this targeting of the top because obviously you talk about hollywood functioning as propaganda the billions of people going to the movies when you were promoting them on that level people arguably feel that they got to as much but it is at the
8:12 pm
top that things have to change yes it is at the top fundamentally biting ankles of power does not work i wanted to show people that you could go for that but of course some people saying that they're there quite a few people still still there out there definitely are for legal reasons regardless shouldn't you are the people i mean how would you say you have the law serves them as well in terms of media being able to cover stories like this well i mean if you look at harvey weinstein got to turn himself in on a friday afternoon to be arrested on a long weekend that means his story won't be running all week in the news there are to be old news by the time the next week rolls around after the bank holiday you know that's all orchestrated that's all orchestrated. in the media by not covering it in the week following necessarily falls into that two week on a quest save the police acted like
8:13 pm
a shield your promotional system of staggering events in his case he has people high up on his side which is a sad side to be on and you see it is symptomatic all of this probably again to the people you seem to preempt the criticism in the book towards the end saying people will think i should i go hollywood rather than all the widows me for what element of it is done to me well you know i think i get to say to you know i don't know hollywood anything know why i don't see many people that do you know people like me the ones that are marketed as sex symbols they don't and i talk about this in the book they don't generally get out of their life or they're kind of driven crazy and live off in the desert somewhere they don't come out the other side it's very hard to come out the other side you know an interviewer asked me if i was person and non-grata in hollywood and i said no their persona non-grata was me i get
8:14 pm
a sense i get to say to i count and in terms of trying to change things you talk about emailing tweeting social media because she will boycotting it isn't there well to me it is to do with mass action and i suppose that the meta you were was a big degree of mass action whether it be through writing or trade unions they read on the decline in the united states is that the way forward because presumably even you think this is just one success you haven't been totally successful well i think it has changed a lot i've i've heard of that they're receiving a scene right now on something i know about a project that i've heard of where it was to sexualized a rape so they're taking it out entirely people are they are starting to see things with different lenses it's whether they fully understand it or not. you know who knows but they understand that it's bad and that's a start you know i was sent a script a while ago and every single time the female character appeared she had
8:15 pm
a laundry basket for no apparent reason and she never did the laundry she just liked her laundry basket. is that kind of stuff i want people to start seeing these movies and. and the television and picking apart what they're telling you pick apart like what message are you sending me with this female character with this male character with the toxic masculinity this is not just about how women are represented it's men and of course of his men running something they're going to be defined as the men but in a way that i think puts a trap on a lot of men and also i feel like the little boys you see it so young with them when they get to know your so brave you don't cry my heart breaks for them cry it hurt you'll be done in a minute it's cool you're ok but people are so quick to stick you in the box aren't they at that kills me people think they do i do everything for women i think i'm more of a humanist now i want to get out of these rigid structures because they're killing
8:16 pm
us i mean if you look at the state of the world i think arguably could say it's having some troubles toxic masculinity can only bring you so far and then it will cave in on itself but i think it i hope it caves into freedom for everybody because i want everybody to be out of these rigid structures are in because they're just not necessary you know i've been lucky enough in a lot of ways to live a fairly free life even while in different cults at least the life of the mind and i got mine back close i kept i kept older i got that but i didn't break and i see that so many men i see them like kind of. not knowing or being taught how to process things or or just and there's so much you know violence towards women and it stems from it stems from this idea of ownership for one thing of women and the other part i think is not being able to process emotion
8:17 pm
i mean there are people that are social and sick there's just that but what about the others you know to me and and that's where like. i know it sounds really weird but my heart almost breaks par for the month. and that's it for the show will be back on monday keep in touch with us by social media till then we'll see you on monday forty six years to the day of the acquittal of charges of murder kidnapping and conspiracy of the american communist angela davis now the activist professor angela davis if you give us to california. well you know the cars they were kind of adopted because we were called pirates for so long. i've been there in the small boats next to the harp on ships and it's just . too much coffee and. the little self to be
8:18 pm
told fish already ninety percent of the dots i need to bone to connor. to conduct fifteen scoops seventy five tons torn up and they do it several times a day with a big fleet so now you get an idea of why the ocean is all. we have to understand we can all stay still and just. be with them this will be used feel more user. i'm doing this because i want the future world to the future can generations to have out and enjoy the ocean how we have. we have the privilege of being the most allied i love the united states. send to
8:19 pm
rosie tool and many of the alliances promoted by the west and new knight states and particularly by members will also have the. preserving the most sanctioned. of that to any group of countries so while it sounds contradictory it is going to be and this shows that pakistan will do what is in its national interest it will know it just will with the end of one. that was probably not me but i. don't.

8:25 pm
awful living conditions in gaza. palestinian territory exposes the main threat to palestinian and israeli civilians hamas is a major and pediment to pete use a response song who is responsible for girls are being besieged by here and i need not having access to basic necessities is written it is hamas that has consistently diverted humanitarian assistance into military infrastructure who is responsible for the detention of hundreds of palestinian children in this room united nations sides with terrorists over israel as the kuwait resolution does. including. those against. bringing to separate resolution the text as proposed just not reflect a balanced and cultural approach to the israeli palestinian conflict and we regret
8:26 pm
that the american does not adequately reference israel's responsibilities and obligations with regard to this resolution rightly places responsibility where it belongs in favor of. this search and there is another missed opportunity for this kind of. the meeting is adjourned. well during the now two month long protests at least one hundred sixteen palestinian protesters have been killed by i.d.f. soldiers at the gazan border according to the international red cross thirteen thousand palestinians have been injured more than three and a half thousand wounded by live on munition well the organization is now of boosting its medical assistance program in the area the initiative will cost more

than five million dollars of the next six months it includes two surgical teams which are expected to conduct two thousand operations also a fifty bed surgical unit as well as additional part of medics and supplies here's how the red cross describes the humanitarian situation. as it stands. the hospital or simply cannot grasp or deal with a bigger influx of violence. if we see the same amount of wounded arriving in your speed doors as what we saw on the fourteenth of may and would simply have hundreds of patients leading to death in the parking lot. tens of have already lost some of their limbs and became amputees and follows an arms have been wounded including several thousands by live ammunition that's
8:28 pm
something that is overwhelming for any help system in the world the axillary deterioration of the humanitarian situation has affected all speed or. all key infrastructure so the capacity of the system to cope with this new inflicts is extremely limited and this is why the i.c.r.c. he says well. it's capacity to when where we've as a medical needs you're in gaza. you know when you are you know. legs of palestinian red cross and the speedo and in fifteen minutes eighty were been wounded arrive when you're in chief and in eight hours five hundred cases arrive this is something that is absolutely unmanageable in most schools in paris in new york but even more in gaz are which is already civilly weakened and butter of the plays
