During this time of global unrest, violence, and clashing opinions, we spend an hour with peace activist David Swanson. He joins Esty Dinur to discuss a path to peace in Palestine-Israel and Ukraine, the impact of the military–industrial complex, and why the suggestion of peace seems to outrage many.

They also speak about Esty’s recent opinion piece for the Cap Times. Esty has another piece in the November addition of the Isthmus (which is available in print, but not yet online).

David is coming to Madison on Sunday, November 12th from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at The Crossing. He’ll be speaking on a panel for hosted by the Madison branch of  World Beyond War on the topic: “What should be done to end the war in Ukraine?”
