April - December: National Book Tour "Drone Warfare" with Medea Benjamin
Thursday, December 20th 2012
Nationwide,
Medea Benjamin, author of "Drone Warfare: Killing by Remote Control," is giving presentations about her new book and the future of the international anti-drone movement. Click here to see book tour dates and cities: http://j.mp/HlFNs0
About the Book - visit this webpage for ordering and other info: http://j.mp/yR7ftj
Weeks after the 2002 American invasion of Afghanistan, Medea Benjamin visited that country. There, talking with victims of the strikes, she learned the reality behind the “precision bombs” on which U.S. forces were becoming increasingly reliant.
"Drone Warfare" is a comprehensive look at the growing menace of robotic warfare, with an extensive analysis of who is producing the drones, where they are being used, who “pilots” these unmanned planes, who are the victims and what are the legal and moral implications. In vivid, readable style, the book also looks at what activists, lawyers and scientists are doing to ground the drones, and ways to move forward.
Want to organize an event at your church, community group, local bookstore or university? If you would like to schedule Medea for an event, please send a request to her assistant Alli McCracken, Alli@codepink.org.
