Your Call: Whistle blowing in the age of Snowden

 

On the August 22nd edition of Your Call, we’ll have a conversation with the Nation’s Mark Hertsgaard about his new book Bravehearts: Whistle-Blowing in the Age of Snowden

Hertsgaard says whistle-blowers deserve our attention and understanding for preserving the foundations of a democratic society. Who are some of the most influential whistle blowers of our time? What does it take to be a whistle-blower? Join the conversation, on the next Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you. 

Guests:

Mark Hertsgaard, environmental correspondent for The Nation, author of seven books, including Bravehearts: Whistle-Blowing in the Age of Snowden
