But his work soon expanded into a much larger investigation of a nexus of political corruption and corporate power that works to silence protest and to obscure reality with propaganda. What emerges is a chilling account of the secret campaigns of weaponized storytelling being used to prevent us from seeing the ecological, public health, and authoritarian threats that these farms represent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePotter's journalistic practice of bearing witness took him to places he had never expected, from factory farms to fascist groups, from whistleblowing to censorship laws, political corruption and propaganda campaigns, and the book is an immersive, engaging personal account of the ups and downs of his journey. A well-woven tale of investigative reporting, archival research, photography, and memoir, \u003cem\u003eLittle Red Barns\u003c\/em\u003e is about how the biggest industries on the planet hide from the public and secretly campaign to silence protest. The little red barns are a case study, and a warning for anyone concerned about the right to protest and hold corporations accountable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Will Potter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0872869148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780872869141\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e City Lights Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/03\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Will Potter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46250660757759,"sku":"9780872869141","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a8cc883d-fe3b-4731-8c62-d48a759ed961.jpg?v=1729601015","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/little-red-barns-will-potter-9780872869141","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
