Ep3807_BardsFM - Occupy Portland, Influence Operations and the Antifa Problem Today

from BardsFM · host Scott Kesterson

As of late, Portland, Oregon has become a focal point of news again as Federal Police stand off against Antifa. The solutions that are unfolding and the rhetoric in the information cycle is binary... each side standing against each other with violence and hate as the driver. Yet, in 2012 Portland Police demonstrated another way when faced with the Occupy Portland protest. Instead of taking a heavy hand, they used influence operations to build trust, transform behavior and to forge respect and peace in the city. This is my account based on my observations from 2012. #BardsFM #ShapingOutcomes #Accountability Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com BardsFM CAP, Celebrating 50 Million Downloads: https://ambitiousfaith.net Morning Intro Music Provided by Brian Kahanek: www.briankahanek.com MYPillow promo code: BARDS Go to https://www.mypillow.com/bards and use the promo code BARDS or...
