Note sull'episodio

In this episode, we discuss the philosophy and ethical justification of civil disobedience, radical protest, and revolution. Whereas civil disobedience involves peacefully breaking the law, radical protest and revolution involve violence, terror, and militant action. Sometimes radical protest is justified; other times, it is not. We discuss Ghandi's peaceful revolution in India, Mohammed Ali and Rosa Parks' civil disobedience, the late Nelson Mandela, CHAZ, and the recent violent attack on the U.S. Capitol building.
