Join your host Chuck Ochelli and C.A.A. Savastano to discuss some periods of human slavery that extend thousands of years back to Ancient Sumer and have journey across time and nearly every nation to still plague humanity in present forms.
The first article of this series offered substantial evidence that slavery was not begun in lands which became the United States during 1619 and that it was established not by England or later American colonists but existed before Europeans arrived only to be perniciously adapted by varying imperial powers over a century earlier. Among the overlooked facts is that slavery was ongoing for centuries prior to the usual four hundred years that some claim. North America represents a minor portion in the greater history of using illegal captive human labor and slavery was not “unique to the United States, it is a part of almost every nation’s history, from Greek and Roman civilizations to contemporary forms of human trafficking.”i A largely misunderstood issue by some who discuss the matter of slavery is how common the practice quickly became due to its use by nearly every culture in North America. Its tribal roots shifted into a feudal and subsequently imperial system that empowered those using people’s fear and disgust of others against them only to render financial value at the cost of human freedom. Past tribal bondage was transformed into the legalized Portuguese enslavement of Native Americans and Africans while the Spanish crown expanded these practices with help from ongoing religious and public support.
Read MoreDoctors are supposed to be healers and those who can ease human suffering, but what might occur if a doctor abandoned ethics and sought to unlock the fear and pain of damaged people by enhancing their suffering? C.A.A. Savastano and Chuck Ochelli delve into the life of Dr. Louis Joylan West and his commitment to understanding human pain and discomfort by using inhuman methods to do so often at the behest of government officials.
Read MoreC.A.A. Savastano returns to the Wall Street Window to discuss the superficial appearance of the face offered by most corporations engaging in morality policing and the actual reasons they are likely doing so.
Read MoreSeveral corporations have been moralizing to customers and using corporate power to censor information and influence politics in the name of better practices for quite some time. These corporations have altered their business practices to use social issues for influencing potential customers, limiting worker behavior and thought, and shaping legal policies in a psychological attempt to make customers believe a corporation has moral ethics or is worthy of emulation. This ridiculous proposition can be unmasked with every corporate spending report, do they spend most of their earnings on genuine attempts to better society for all people or do they plan events and reward loyal advocates for paying lip service to their mask of morality? Are they prone to extravagant displays of “benevolence” with media coverage and every possible manipulation of the event to advantage or do they just invest within communities without all the desired but unnecessary back patting and victory laps?
Read MoreJoin historian Mike Swanson and author C.A.A. Savastano to have a direct and revealing conversation about the historical record of North American slavery compared to a popular modern narrative regarding the period. They discuss the greater timeline of slavery and bondage in North America that extends at least 600 hundred years.
Read MoreIn the modern debate about United States history some have attempted to rewrite history and seemingly refocus it upon a culture of selective grievance study. Instead of a neutral assessment with context and substantial evidence these advocates have opted to employ ideology by promoting the censorship of opposing facts and scholars. There are huge periods of history absent from many supposedly insightful texts and reports in the media likely because they do not serve the narrative some want portrayed. Often such personalities mixing social justice with academics will assume they are eminent moral authorities but fail to make factually verifiable arguments that do not rely partially on ideology. We must now ask what have they left out of their historical narrative and is what they claim a full account of how the injustice of slavery began in America?
Read MoreC.A.A. Savastano joins the Ochelli effect for another biographic assessment of a person whose endorsement has become to some more important than evidence. Storied advocate Vincent Torquato Bugliosi, the prosecutor of Charles Manson, has a past that many do not completely understand.
The historical evidentiary inspection continues with Chuck Ochelli and Carmine Savastano in part two of a biographic look at the less known actions of Vince Bugliosi.
A final episode concludes the review of the largely unknown and disturbing past actions of man called able prosecutor by some and villain by others, yet both ideas have evidence to support them.
Read MoreC.A.A. Savastano returns to discuss legal rights challenges, technology, current event, joint corporate and official surveillance measures, and what the public can do about some of these important matters.
Read MoreEnduring historical matters generate significant attention which often inspires certain people to declare improbable stories that cast them as pivotal to history. Claims of royal lineage, tales of secret magical knowledge, and supposed insider knowledge repeatedly are the basis for hucksters to manipulate the public. The assassination of President John F. Kennedy offers no shortage of dishonest official actors but these former leaders are not the only challenge to ascertaining facts. There are opportunists in the public with a great appetite for perceived authority, financial gain, and similar to prior mentioned leaders they assert nearly anything without facts because they also claim to possess some truth or insight unavailable to those who require evidence. Yet how can anyone expect most in the public to believe them without any demonstrable basis to do so?
Read MoreC.A.A. Savastano joins Mike Swanson on the Wall Street Window Podcast to address some of the many scientific, economic, and political unknowns that exist among ongoing health crisis. They further address disinformation and myths being spread by some who seek to benefit from the resulting public anxiety.
Read MoreC.A.A. Savastano joins Larry Hancock and Chuck Ochelli on The Ochelli Effect to discuss ongoing disinformation, both foreign and domestic, within ongoing health crisis and the attempt of government to frame their responses. Then Doug Campbell, Rob Clark, and Savastano offer discussion regarding aspects of the JFK case evidence, modern developments, and evolving myths.
Read MoreFor craven politicians, eager political advocates, and deceptive intelligence leaders a crisis also presents an opportunity. We in times of health crisis must not just face the disaster that everyone is concerned with but additionally must guard against growing fear and disgust generated by those who desire to manipulate us. Isolation for public health forces some people to be alone in a heightened state of stress facing instinctual emotions that allow external powers and official groups to manipulate citizens. Many national governments during world history exploited dangers beyond their control to enact laws and intelligence operations and some even use existing dangers to manufacturing greater panic by increasing the fear response inside targeted nations to damage them beyond normal disasters alone.
Read MoreThe Ochelli Effect and Wall Street Window Podcast both feature discussion of recent history and current events that feature domestic groups offering biased information and foreign powers using blatant disinformation to assign blame for disastrous mistakes to others lacking evidence.
Read MoreC.A.A. Savastano returns to the Ochelli Effect and to discuss some of the Cold War’s history of using fear against domestic populations while employing violence through proxy wars. They also briefly discuss the defined meanings of pure capitalism and pure socialism and some modern misconceptions about these economic systems.
