Everest links the war abroad to the Bush agenda at home, and discusses how to resist them both. His talk is being run in its entirety, including questions and answers
Book TV is on CSPAN-2. Check http://www.booktv.org, weekend schedule, to double-check the time. In some areas, the broadcast times may be different.

Also, you’ll find a new “links” section in the right column. (I will be adding lots of suggestions over time.) First up is Christine Hamm’s blog...a mixture of poetic brilliance, cynical observation, and magical revelation.
