Veterans for Peace with Dr. Bill Ehrhart on Smedley Butler and US Imperialism
Veterans for Peace Radio Hour - A podcast by jim wohlgemuth - Wednesdays
Dr. Bill Ehrhart joins us to talk about General Smedley Butler and his efforts to call out capitalism, war, and the military. Bill also quickly outlines the rise of the imperialist US. Bill reflects on General Butler's service, the coup planned by the republican party to overthrow FDR that he thwarted, and his late-life activism. We need to remember Smedley's commitment to the Bill of Rights and the people of the US which are severely lacking today.
