Listen to Carl Oglesby

The folks at Black Op Radio have interviewed Carl Oglesby, the first president of Students for a Democratic Society (1965-66) and author of the classic book The Yankee and Cowboy War: Conspiracies from Dallas to Watergate (1976). The interview may be disjointed and meandering, but Oglesby’s theories about warring power elites and the effect of their war on U.S. history are always fascinating. “It isn’t the rebels who cause the troubles of the world,” Oglesby once said. “It’s the troubles that cause the rebels.” Listen to or download the interview right here.
