Piece Description

Naomi Wolf author of Give Me Liberty and The End of America shares with us her research on the ten steps dictators from Hitler to Pinochet must take to destroy constitutional freedoms: 1. Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy. (The War on Terror) 2. Create secret prisons where torture takes place. 3. Develop a thug caste or paramilitary force not answerable to citizens. (Blackwater) 4. Set up an internal surveillance system. 5. Harass citizens' groups. 6. Engage in arbitrary detention and release. 7. Target key individuals. (Dan Rather, Valerie Plame) 8. Control the press. 9. Treat all political dissents as traitors. 10. Suspend the rule of law. In Give Me Liberty Ms Wolf discusses the practice of democracy as envisioned by the Founding Fathers. She shares with us her passion for democracy and outlines the steps we can all take to reclaim it!
