Music in Detainee Interrogations 30 min

Alina Simone 18 min

Torture memos and waterboarding are the subject of much debate in Washington, but few are talking about the use of music in detainee interrogations. Today: music as torture, past and present. Also: Ukrainian-born singer Alina Simone is acquainting Americans with the work of a tragic Soviet-era punk singer. She performs live.
