On the 40th anniversary of the trial of the Catonsville Nine, historian
Howard Zinn and a distinguished panel discuss the lessons of Vietnam and
Iraq.  Led by Roman Catholic priests Daniel and Philip Berrigan, the
Catonsville peace activists sparked movements for civil disobedience
against the U.S. invasion of Vietnam and remain a source of inspiration
to those seeking an end to the war in Iraq.  As an added bonus, Boston
College sociologist Charles Derber will say a few words about the
current meltdown in financial capitalism.
