Our 25 in 25 series continues with Arnie Alpert, Program Coordinator for the last twenty-six years at the American Friends Service Committee of New Hampshire, an organization that promotes peace and justice. We'll talk with Arnie about his long career in the peace movement, from his early days protesting the Nuclear Power Plant in Seabrook to modern rallies and lessons in bird-dogging the Presidential candidates when they come to the Granite State. In celebration of NHPR's twenty-fifth birthday, we'll also look at how "Live Free or Die" New Hampshire has changed over the past quarter century in terms of the peace movement and political activism and where it's headed in the future.

Guests

  • Arnie Alpert, Program Director for the New Hampshire chapter of the American Friends Service Committee
