| Summary: |
Featured speakers/guests: |
| Barry takes on the assertion that Sgt. Bales was simply a deranged soldier who went nuts and slaughtered 17 people, mainly women and children, in Afgahanistan. Barry argues instead that this kind of sociopathic behavior is rooted in the training, mission and purpose of the US military. Dix digs into the system behind the murder of Trayvon Martin and what it's going to take to end this kind of thing once and for all. Special segment: Bob Dylan singing "The Ballad of Emmett Till"; Casnoff and Leigh talk about the latest play from playwright Andrew Dolan, "The Many Misstresses of Martin Luther King" and how it's proving to be a concentration of some of the hottest questions regarding race in America. |
Kathleen Barry (Professor Emerita/author); Carl Dix (Revolutionary Communist Party); Philip Casnoff & Tracey A. Leigh (Actors) |
