Time: Georgia Is Using a Domestic Terrorism Law Expanded After Dylann Roof Against ‘Cop City’ Protesters

Time (5/4/23 ([link removed]) )

This week on CounterSpin: Do you care about environmental degradation? Then you care about Cop City ([link removed]) . Do you care about violent overpolicing of Black and brown communities? Then you care about Cop City. Do you care about purportedly democratic governance that overrides the actual voice of the people? Then you care about Cop City.

But be aware: Your concern about Cop City, and its myriad impacts and implications, may get you labeled a domestic terrorist. The official response to popular resistance ([link removed]) to the militarized policing facility being created on top of the forest in Atlanta, Georgia, is an exemplar of how some officials fully intend to bring all powers to which they have access, and to create new powers, to treat anyone who stands in opposition to whatever they decide they want to do as enemies of the state, deserving life-destroying prison sentences. So if your thoughts about Cop City don't motivate you, think about your right to protest anything at all.

We'll talk about anti-activist terrorism charges with Cody Bloomfield, communications director at Defending Rights & Dissent ([link removed]) .
