Killing in the Name: Rage Against the DHS

<p>This is a special episode we're excited to bring as we return from our break with our very first Music-centered topic. Rage Against the Machine released a song titled "Killing in the Name" on November 2, 1992. The song has been described as "a howling, expletive-driven tirade against the ills of American society" - and we think it's relevance and lasting effect on American counterculture is more than worth discussing.</p><p></p><p>Send listener questions and episode suggestions to geeksandgovernance@gmail.com</p><p></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://www.youtube.com/@GeeksAndGovernance" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/@GeeksAndGovernance</a></p><p></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://tiktok.com/@geeksandgovernance" target="_blank">tiktok.com/@geeksandgovernance</a></p><p></p><p>To advertise on the show, contact us!</p>
