On this episode, our guest is Stephanie Atkinson, an Army veteran and war resister who now works with nonprofits Veterans for Peace and Courage to Resist to bring the truth about military recruitment to heavily-recruited high school students. Besides sharing her inspiring personal story, we discuss everything from military “feminism” to our favorite dystopian fashion (spoiler alert: Blade Runner ftw).Featured music on this episode is “If You Ain’t Cheatin’ You Ain’t Tryin’” and “Just A Little Cog” by Joy DamianiGET INVOLVEDVeterans for Peacehttps://www.veteransforpeace.org/Courage to Resisthttps://couragetoresist.org/Truth in Recruitmenthttps://truthinrecruitment.org/READ STEPHANIE’S WRITINGhttps://wri-irg.org/en/story/2011/proud-deserterLEARN MOREShoshana Jacksonhttps://www.msnbc.com/podcast/shoshana-johnson-was-america-s-first-black-female-prisoner-war-n1283841Jessica Lynchhttps://www.cnn.com/2015/07/20/us/jessica-lynch-where-is-she-now/index.htmlLynndie England https://www.marieclaire.com/politics/news/a170/lynndie-england-1/Book: Bananas, Beaches, and Bases by Cynthia Enloehttps://bookshop.org/p/books/bananas-beaches-and-bases-making-feminist-sense-of-international-politics-cynthia-enloe/6561808?ean=9780520279995
