Episode 4 - The Church Committee
In the wake of various reports and media coverage of abuses by the United States Intelligence Agencies in the 1960s and 70s, the Senate created a committee, commonly referred to as the Church Committee, to investigate these abuses. They discovered various forms of abuse by the agencies being investigated that included the illegal surveillance of American citizens, unapproved clandestine operations, and attempts to undermine various political movements in the United States which included anti-Vietnam War groups, various groups defined as "the new left", and civil rights groups, most notably that of Rev. MLK Jr.
We discuss the major findings of the report as well as its implications for today.

In this episode, we separate the industry of "Politics" from the idea of politics as a means of educating the populous to enact change. We discuss how the Legacy media and political establishment have corrupted the conversation around politics, the philosophical framework of politics and democratic institutions, the forgotten history of grassroots political movements in the United States, and the necessity of actively participating in the political process.
