Ralph Young

CHQ&A

On today's episode we feature a conversation with author and professor Ralph Young, an expert on dissent and protest movements. As a history professor at Temple University, Ralph has taught the courses “Dissent in America,” “Recent U.S. History” and “Trials in America,” as well as a weekly discussion forum called the “Dissent in America Teach-ins.” His books include Dissent in America: The Voices That Shaped a Nation; Make Art Not War: Political Protest Posters from the Twentieth Century; and, most recently, Dissent: The History of An American Idea. Ralph spoke to guest interviewer John Merino following his July 23 Amphitheater lecture to open Chautauqua's week on "The Ethics of Dissent."
