Michael Parenti – Lies, War, And Empire

By Michael Parenti Films on DVD

In this 2007 talk for Antioch College in Seattle Parenti raises the intriguing question of how we make a valid analysis of our social reality – given that so many lies are told to confuse us. In Part one of this talk Parenti speaks about lies, dissent, and how we arrive at the truth of our situation and still retain our sanity. In the second half of his talk Parenti raises the question whether the Iraq war was not a failure but a success for some parts of the empire – and why.

Thanks to Mike McCormick for the film and audio recording of this event. Mike is the host of “Mind over Matters” on KEXP radio, Seattle.
