Writing “Little Red Barns”—a book about fascism and factory farms—has been a long journey, and an isolated one. Coming out the other side to have authors I admire engaging with this story means the world to me.
Thank you Lydia Millet & @washingtonpost

The "Green Scare" is being cited in the UK case as evidence of why a fugitive animal rights activist wouldn't get a fair trial if extradiced.
I talked to Ali Winston about the FBI's obsessive campaign against animal and enviro activists as "terrorists"

This was from my Democracy Now interview about Trump designating anti-fascists as terrorists.
Amy Goodman asked how we should respond.
I've spent my life as an investigative journalist studying political repression and authoritarianism.
Here's the 1 lesson I need you to hear:

Kim Stallwood is truly a citizen historian of the animal rights movement, and I mean that in the best way--he has documented it while living it.
It's a pleasure to chat about my new book and the link between factory farms and rising fascism

Little Red Barns is a result of @will_potter's 10-year investigation—from factory farms to Ag-Gag laws, government overreach, & authoritarianism.
His courage & clarity in facing uncomfortable truths is inspiring—a reminder of why speaking out matters.
