027: The Morality of Resistance with Andre Henry


Listen Later

There are a lot of ways to protest and trying to figure out what the appropriate violence is feels overwhelmingly difficult. When the state is inherently violent, how are people committed to non-violence supposed to respond? Capitalism, the law, personal property are all values in American culture all have more value than nonwhite Americans. As Dr. King said, we have a moral responsibility to break unjust laws. So how do we do this? I spoke to Andre Henry about how we move forward in this inherently violent culture. We discuss the different moral frameworks we can try on, and the different applications of non-violent resistance.
