Sheehan, Cindy — Gold Star Mom’s for Peace
Sometimes in peoples lives, something happens that changes them, forever. Especially when a child dies. In this edition of Radio Curious, we visit with Cindy Sheehan, the mother of Casey Sheehan who was killed in the Iraq War shortly after he enlisted, about 7 years ago. This event changed her life, dramatically. She discusses her personal transformation from being an every-day working class mother, to becoming an outspoken peace activist, author and congressional candidate.
The conversation with Cindy Sheehan was recorded March 16th, 2011.
Cindy Sheehan’s book, “Myth America” is available for free on her website: http://cindysheehanssoapbox.com.
The book she recommends is, “Hegemony and Survival: America’s Quest for Global Dominance,” by Noam Chomsky.
