Robert Ivker Interview

Robert Ivker discusses his book One Town's Terror: 9/11, Iraq and Burlington Vermont. Perhaps few US locales have been turned upside since 9/11 as much as Burlington, Vermont and its surrounding villages. According to Ivker, the city of Burlington and the state of Vermont have sent more citizen-soldiers into active duty in Iraq and Afghanistan than most other states in the country. At the same time, Burlington has been at the forefront of a wide range of anti-war, pro-peace movements and boasts the country's only Socialist member of Congress. Previously a credentialed journalist at the United Nations, Ivker has published dozens of articles in political newspapers and magazines, both nationally and internationally. Recorded April 10, 2007
