Title: Russell Kanning to Speak on Civil Disobedience Panel at Keenevention!
Post by: FTL_Ian on October 12, 2013, 02:33 PM NHFT
Presented by the star of Derrick J's Victimless Crime Spree? and the host of Peace News Now?, Derrick J Freeman – this panel will focus on perhaps the most controversial form of activism – civil disobedience and noncooperation. Is it "poisoning the well"? How do you stay cool under threat from aggressors? Come ask your question of this panel of experienced civ dis activists.

Keenevention is certainly not the first time a civil disobedience panel has been presented at a liberty gathering, but it is the first time in many years that Russell Kanning, one of the original movers to Keene, returns to the stage! Russell was instrumental in making Keene the destination for future waves of activists who would emulate his peaceful disobedience. Russell will be joined by another original Free State Project? mover and liberty civil disobedience pioneer, Lauren Canario. Plus, Ademo Freeman, the founder of Cop Block? will bring his expertise to the discussion. All of our panelists and the presenter have been arrested on multiple instances of civ dis and have spent time behind bars. Was it worth it? Come find out.

You can get the full schedule, hotel info, and tickets for just $50 for the whole weekend on the Keenevention site:

I would hope you would address the purity of motive aspect of CD. Coming from the right place... more than just being against the man.

Ghandi and Martin Luther King as opposed to, oh I don't know, Anarcho Jesse I suppose.

On a side note, I'll be on the LGBT panel Saturday morning at 9am, long before anyone wakes up from partying the night before.

The Peaceful Rebel - a song from 2006(?) by John Connell

At a prison out in Dover
As the heat wave passes through
He's as peaceful as was Jesus
And the gaurds all know it's true

They don't know what to make of him
He won't put up a fight
He wakes up smiling every day
And he smiles throughout the night

It is hauntingly familiar
As they watch him through the door
A few times - back in history
There were men like him before

The law was wrong & he was right
But that's not what they see
They just see the strange new rebel
Who keeps acting like he's Free

In that prison cell in Dover
As a summer storm blows through
He's as peaceful as was Jesus
And the JUDGES know it to

And if you don't like him, You won't like me either
He's a non-violent rebel, And I can't wait till he's home again in Keene

It looks like my date to the Keenevention will be stuck in Texas playing nurse. I have a free ticket if someone wants to go to the events.
