187. UCLA Protest Report - Rave New World x Contain

Contain Podcast

In this collaborative episode between Contain and Rave New World, Michelle and Barrett make it to the UCLA student protest encampment just hours before it was violently shut down by the authorities. Slipping past plywood barricades into the graffiti-bombed "liberated zone," they discover an anxious scene of protestors gearing up for a confrontation with the police, as snipers prowl the roof and police helicopters whirr overhead. Through conversations with a contrasting cast of characters--from a conservative YouTuber to a communist cowboy, Muslim-American students and a Jewish activist--this episode presents a kaleidoscopic view of the chaotic, complex reality unfolding in-real-time.
