New World Notes for December 20 - This is Where We Take Our Stand
This week on New World Notes: radio program #198, December 20, from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m., host Kenneth Dowst presents audio excerpts from the Web series, This Is Where We Take Our Stand (6 videos), produced by David Zeiger, Bestor Cram, and Mike Majoros.
A handful of U.S. veterans of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars--now opposed to such wars--meet, talk, and organize. Then, at the Winter Soldier 2 hearings in 2008, they testify publicly to what they saw and did, including the atrocities and war crimes they witnessed. They reveal, touchingly, the psychological burdens veterans now carry.
This week, New World Notes plays selections from the gripping and ultimately hopeful video documentary--scheduled for broadcast in January on PBS stations that choose to air it.
