Courage to Resist
I said, "This is fucked up.” And he said, “You’re just having a little thing.” And I said, “No, it’s not okay.” I said, “We don’t belong here.” Listen to Michael's story.

This year marks 50 years since some of the most important GI resistance actions against the US war in Vietnam. To mark the occasion, we've been producing a podcast series in collaboration with the Vietnam Full Disclosure effort of Veterans For Peace. With your support, we'll soon be able to share with you the first-ever, first-person account of the mutiny aboard the SS Columbia Eagle as it carried napalm to Vietnam in March 1970. Please donate today.

"The fact that we were not shot encouraged us that this was not an unusual opinion ... that Vietnam was just a bad idea in so many ways." Listen to Ray's story.

john ketwig podcastPodcast: "Not something you go home and be proud of" - John Ketwig

"The vast majority of guys who were sent to Vietnam were sent against their will...coerced into the army and had a chip on our shoulders." Listen to John's story.
