Will Potter: Factory Farming and the Myth of the Little Red Barn

Sea Change Radio

Did you know that this country has a host of so-called “ag-gag” laws in place that criminalize the work of photographers and journalists who expose abuses on factory farms? This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak with investigative journalist Will Potter whose new book, “Little Red Barns: Hiding the Truth, from Farm to Fable,” gives us a dark but thought-provoking view of factory farming. We talk about his research, hear what it reveals about our food system and this country’s veering towards fascism, and look at how American agriculture has changed over the past century.
