Bootlegger, Not Bootlicker: Veterans on Civil Disobedience from Thoreau to MLK
Katie Chorbak leads the panel through the case for civil disobedience, from Thoreau and Gandhi to Rosa Parks and the boycotts that had real economics behind them. They draw the line between veteran-led dissent and January 6th, then ask why America celebrates the dissent it survived and condemns the dissent in front of it.
