How can we take on our vast secret government?

On the next Your Call, we'll talk about government secrecy and how it has exploded since 9/11. The Washington Post ran a series last week about the multi-billion dollar industry of "secret intelligence." Independent journalists have been reporting on this for years. Why is so much of U.S. intelligence secret? What should be secret? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What does this secrecy say about our democracy? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Trevor Paglen, artist and author of Blank Spots on the Map: The Dark Geography of the Pentagon's Secret World and Invisible: Covert Operations and Classified Landscapes

Ray McGovern, former CIA analyst and army intelligence officer; founder of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity
