What happens when a writer refuses to stay silent? This episode tells the story of Václav Havel, the Czech playwright whose words helped bring down a brutal authoritarian regime. It’s a story about the power of creativity, conscience, and standing up for what’s right—without violence.
In this episode, we reference Erica Chenoweth's incredible TED talk on nonviolent resistance. It's very much worth your time.
