By Russ Baker on Mar 19, 2013 Jonathan Frieman, “Human Citizen” Russ Baker interviews Jonathan Frieman, who took an unusual stand against corporate personhood. Frieman was stopped in October by a sheriff in Marin County (a San Francisco suburb)—for driving solo in the lane for high-occupancy vehicles.
