Why Do the Pentagon Papers Matter Now?
On the 40th anniversary of the Pentagon Papers release last month, Daniel Ellsberg published an essay, “Why the Pentagon Papers Matter Now.” We think Ellsberg’s thoughts have real relevance and are provocative, especially in the age of WikiLeaks. What do you think? Why do the Pentagon Papers matter now? The producers of the recent Academy-Award and Emmy-nominated documentary The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers have launched an online dialogue, called “The ‘Most Dangerous’ Wall”.
They invite you to post your thoughtful, personal comments, video, audio or photos. Share your ideas and respond to others. In appreciation to those who “get the dialogue going,” the producers will a premium to the first 100 people who post to the site: posters may select their offering, including a gift to FOR.
They also invite you to rate the other postings. One grand prize winner (as ranked highest on the site) will receive dinner with Daniel Ellsberg in Berkeley.
