About this listen

Recap of Campaign Nonviolence action days (date of airing is the last day, also Gandhi’s birthday). Jim brought in two references for discussion: 'The Power Worshipers' by Katherine Stewart and 'Democracy In Chains: A Deep History of the Radical Right’s Stealth Plan for America' by Nancy MacLean. These historical guides shed light on 'ALEC laws', American Legislative Exchange Council, and argue that there was a 70-year intentional movement, including privatization of schools, healthcare, etc, toward making Libertarian mainstream.
