Welcome to the American Exceptionalism Media Project
America: exceptional, or just another powerful country with a foreign policy that benefits a powerful class of rich citizens?
America: a global force for good or a global force for greed?
* The American Exceptionalism Media Project -- AEMP -- is the site for media promoting a cooperative U.S. foreign policy, one that respects the right of people in the developing world to choose their own government and develop their economy to benefit all citizens.
* It’s the site for learning how a self-serving claim of “American exceptionalism” is used to justify military and covert dominance (“primacy,” to use the Pentagon’s phrase) in the developing world through a network of repressive regimes who provide bases to the U.S. military and covert forces and access to American corporations to oil and other natural resources and markets.
* It’s the site for taking action to promote a just foreign policy, one based on what is right for others, and not on what is best for America’s government and corporate elites.
AEMP Campaigns include:
* Exercises for schools and individuals, ages 15 and older. You can find them on the Lessons page.
*
Short web videos challenging assumptions about American exceptionalism
and the American empire. These are currently under production.
