FTV 188 Noam Chomsky
This week on From The Vault we celebrate “The Smartest Man in the World”, Noam Chomsky, presenting the Pacifica Radio Archive’s earliest recording of Noam Chomsky – at a 1968 Draft Resistance teach-in – where Chomsky presents the United States interest in Vietnam.
Then, we’ll listen as Chomsky sits down in 1981 with KPFA Berkeley host Phillip Maldari to make sense of the Camp David Peace Accords signed by Anwar Sadat of Egypt and Menacham Begin of Israel, witnessed by President Jimmy Carter.
Moving on, we hear a March 1992 recording of Noam Chomsky participated in a Creeping Fascism Forum produced by Pacifica Station WBAI in New York.
We end this episode with a recording from June 2009, where Chomsky weighs in on Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India before contemplating the threat of global warming.
From the Vault is presented as part of the Pacifica Radio Archives Preservation and Access Project.
