On Saturday, January 23, the TBS community was honored to host a screening of “The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers,” an Oscar-shortlisted documentary by Judith Ehrlich and Rick Goldsmith. Special guest was Ellsberg himself, who answered questions from the audience for more than an hour after the screening. Ellsberg, still passionate, active, and formidably well-informed, talked about the difficulty of acting with moral courage in a civilian environment, as opposed to demonstrating physical courage in the military. He reminded the audience that our leaders in Washington, civilian and military alike, take the same oath: to protect and defend the Constitution (not the President or even the country) from all enemies, foreign and domestic; and that sometimes, doing so requires the most personally costly civil disobedience. This exhilarating and inspiring evening was actually a TBS Pick-a-Party, hosted by Lee Swenson (an old friend of Ellsberg’s), Vijaya Nagarajan, and David and Beth Trachtenberg.
