Dear President Bush (City Lights Open Media)

In writings, speeches, and an interview conducted in the wake of the famous Camp Casey summer in Crawford, Texas, Cindy Sheehan embraces her personal transformation into America’s most outspoken advocate for peace. From her trip to the World Social Forum in Venezuela to her ouster from the State of the Union address, Sheehan continues to speak out on topics such as civil disobedience, US foreign policy, New Orleans, military recruitment, her son Casey’s death on his fifth day in Iraq, and soldiers who resist.
