Seven Talks with Tim DeChristopher #4: The Power of Civil Disobedience

In this conversation, DeChristopher explains why civil disobedience is effective: it creates a crisis of authority, forces examination of the difference between what is legal and what is just.
The Justice Department has offered DeChristopher the opportunity to enter into a plea bargain and avoid a trial. He explains why he has refused this easy way out.
His trial is scheduled for February 28th in Salt Lake City.
