On today’s show, we are in conversation with Daniel Ellsberg, best known as a Top Defense analyst who leaked the so-called Pentagon Papers in 1971, revealing that the US government was lying to the public about the Vietnam War. With the book The Doomsday Machine: Confessions of a Nuclear War Planner, he reveals more information about America’s nuclear program in the 1960s and exposes the dangers of a policy that continues to this day.
Daniel Ellsberg will be, tonight, Thursday, February 1 at 7:30 PM at King Middle School, 1781 Rose St., in Berkeley. Information: https://kpfa.org/event/daniel-ellsberg/
