Ep. #7 - Thoreau's Civil Disobedience - a podcast by Eric Roark

In this episode of the egg timer we explore Henry David Thoreau's 1849 essay 'Civil Disobedience' .  Thoreau's approach to civil disobedience is put in the spotlight and we see how his view compares and contrasts with that of major 20th century advocates for civil disobedience such as Gandhi and King.
