Challenging the Rhetoric with Cheri Roberts - Show #45

Join Cheri Roberts WEDS, OCT. 5 @ 6pPDT/9pEDT with special guest, Spencer Sunshine, PhD, an associate fellow at Political Research Associates. He is the lead author of the newly released report, 'Up in Arms: A Guide to Oregon's Patriot movement' [READ: Full Report]. Seven of the 26 individuals who are/were under indictment for the 41-day armed takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge near Burns, Oregon are currently on trial.  Sunshine has spent the better part of the last year studying militias and sovereign citizens, particularly in Oregon, and the growing aggression of today's 'Patriot' movement whose beliefs rely heavily on conspiracy theories bred in part by generational, ideological, and/or religious misnomers. We'll go over a bit of the history behind some of the recent armed conflicts and their impact on current politics, communities, and even their own movement. You have questions and we have answers. Don't miss this show.  Let's challenge the rhetoric! Join us in the chatroom.
