Download Radio Free Vermont: A Fable of Resistance AudioBook Free
"I am hoping no one secedes, but I also trust that Americans find out creative ways to withstand injustice and create areas where everybody counts. We've got an extended history of amount of resistance in Vermont, and this book is testimony compared to that reality." (Bernie Sanders) A book that's also the beginning of a movement, Monthly bill McKibben's debut book Radio Free Vermont uses a band of Vermont patriots who decide that their point out might be better off as its own republic. As the number of Radio Free Vermont - "underground, underpowered, and underfoot" - 72-year-old Vern Barclay happens to be broadcasting from an "undisclosed and double-secret location". By using a young computer prodigy known as Perry Alterson, Vern uses his radio show to advocate for a straightforward yet radical idea: an independent Vermont, one where in fact the point out secedes from america and manages under a free of charge local economy. But also for now, he and his radio show must remain untraceable, because in addition to being a lifelong Vermonter and concerned citizen, Vern Barclay is also a fugitive from regulations. In Radio Free Vermont, Monthly bill McKibben entertains and expands upon a concept that's become more popular than ever before - seceding from america. Along with Vern and Perry, McKibben imagines an eccentric band of activists who carry out their own version of guerilla warfare, which includes dismissing local middle college children early honoring Ethan Allen Day and hijacking a Coors Light pick up truck and exchanging the stock with local brew. Witty, biting, and terrifyingly timely, Radio Free Vermont is Monthly bill McKibben's fictional response to the burgeoning amount of resistance movement.
