The Michael Slate Show
Friday, May 7, 10-11 AM, KPFK 90.7 FM
Army veteran Matthis Chiroux, of the "We Are Not Your Soldiers Tour" from The World Can't Wait. The tour brings the truth to high
school and college students about what military recruiters are really recruiting for. It exposes the realities of the
war, including vets talking about their own on-the-ground experience in
rounding up people, rape and the consistent use of torture on innocent people.
After five years in the US Army, Matthis publicly refused reactivation and
deployment to Iraq and won a victory for resisters when the military discharged him under honorable conditions as a
result. . . More info.
