Thu, 13 December 2007 Covering, the Hidden Assault on Our Civil Rights What the Media Doesn't Tell You host, Larry Velvel, and author Kenji Yoshino discuss the phenomenon of people putting on false faces in public in order to project conformity and "getting along." The book and author suggest that the intense pressure we experience daily to conform and not stand out in terms of either opinion nor personal characteristics amounts to an assault on our civil rights, and one that is difficult to both specify and counter for the very reason of forced conformity.
