For those unfamiliar with Leonard Cohen, his original Everybody Knows is a key standard of the Cohen canon. The Parody Project embraces the theme and runs with it at Trump’s expense.

Some of you may remember the Parody Project from an earlier post: Confounds the Science, the Simon & Garfunkel parody..

 

Since our platform is about expressing ideas and ideals instead of cash flow, clicks, or fundraising, we have the freedom to include a wide range of topics and formats that might not work elsewhere. We don’t need or want paid content, promotional materials, or story lines designed to please donors.

So the idea here is to present videos one or more of the editors feel speaks to them. Sometimes it will be news. Sometimes it will be history. And a lot of the time it will be culture. You can not and should not separate these things: it is diversity and intersectionality that makes our movement strong.

Feel free to suggest videos at contact@sandiegofreepress.org
