The NJ Center for Global Equity had it's first documentary and discussion event on April 27, 2025 for The Camden 28 by Anthony Giacchino. We talked about the Catholic Left action that took place on August 21, 1971 in Camden, NJ and the subsequent trial. Our discussion jumped around a lot from past to present with the US government's actions and influence at the center of it all. Listen as we try to draw lessons from the past to apply to the present.
Being the first, of hopefully many to come, this episode took some time to edit. Lessons were learned and hopefully future episodes won't take so long to come out. Stay tuned!
