Poet and environmentalist Wendell Berry was joined by journalist Bill McKibben in a conversation about writing and civil disobedience. Both authors follow in the footsteps of Henry David Thoreau, using the power of the word and acts of civil disobedience to defend fragile ecosystems and preserve threatened communities from degradation. PEN New England honored Wendell Berry with The Howard Zinn “People Speak” Award. Click here to listen to the program
