SUMMARY:"Truth and Consequence"\, a Book by Daniel Ellsberg
DESCRIPTION:A talk with the book’s editors\, Michael Ellsberg and Jan Thomas.\n \nJoin us for a conversation with Michael Ellsberg\, son of the late Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg\, and Jan R. Thomas\, Daniel’s longtime assistant. The two are the editors of the recently published Truth and Consequence: Reflections on Catastrophe\, Civil Resistance\, and Hope\, a posthumous collection of Daniel’s previously unpublished writings.\n\nAlmost all Americans of a certain age\, and all students of political science and history\, know the name Daniel Ellsberg. And they mostly know him for his incredibly courageous act of leaking what became known as “The Pentagon Papers” – classified documents that told the truth of our government’s massive cover up of the prosecution of the Vietnam War.\nWhat is lesser-known by the average American is that Daniel\, at the tender age of 27\, had one of highest level security clearances in government as a top nuclear consultant and strategic analyst to the Rand corporation\, the Pentagon and the White House. And then later went on to be one of the most vociferous voices decrying the insanity of planning for a war that would effectively end civilization as we know it. He published this story in 2017 in the seminal book\, The Doomsday Machine: Confessions of a Nuclear War Planner. \nWhat is even lesser-known is that Daniel was a prolific writer\, but rarely published his writings. Now\, 3 years after his tragic passing from pancreatic cancer\, his son\, Michael Ellsberg\, in conjunction with Jan Thomas\, one of Daniel’s earliest assistants\, have collected and curated a volume of never-before published personal and professional musings\, notes and warnings that give deep tremendous insight into the thoughts behind this brilliant mind. \nPlease join us on Thursday\, June 25th at 7pm EDT as we welcome Michael and Jan to discuss this all important book.\nRegister to attend:
