Chico Peace and Justice Center in the garden

In our back garden, many folks talked with James Douglass about his new book and about the state of the world in general.
Few books so justify the words "ground-breaking" as James Douglass's JFK and the Unspeakable, published by Orbis Books. In what has been called "a stunning mix of political thriller and meticulous scholarship" Douglass presents a compelling, persuasive account of why President John F. Kennedy was assassinated and why the unmasking of this truth remains crucial for the future of our country and the world.
Jim Douglass is a longtime peace activist and writer. He and his wife Shelley are co-founders of the Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action in Poulsbo, Washington, and Mary's House, a Catholic Worker house of hospitality in Birmingham, Alabama. His books include The Nonviolent Cross, The Nonviolent Coming of God, and Resistance and Contemplation.
