138: Unabridged Interview: James Lawson
Manage episode 395685828 series 2687298
This is our unabridged interview with James Lawson.
The US Civil Rights Movement, like Gandhi's Indian Independence Movement, was famously set apart by its employment of non-violent resistance methods. But have you ever wondered how such a movement was possible on so large a scale?
In this episode, we are honored to have the man who Martin Luther King Jr. called friend, mentor, and the very conscience and architect of the Civil Rights Movement: Reverend James Lawson.
Now in his 90’s, he discusses the United States’ past and present, and what it took to organize a whole population across the country to fight back without throwing a punch.
“We started the public desegregation of the nation,” he says, “and we did it without hating anybody.”
