Coming up Thursday on Central Vermont Community Radio - an alternative to the billions of dollars of destruction and thousands of lives lost in Ukraine, but is it realistic? And the good folks of Adamant gear up once more to celebrate (?!) the annual visitation of the black fly.

9:00 - 10:00 am
George Lakey, who has practiced and taught non-violent intervention since the 1960s, argued that Ukraine had "an untapped resource for wielding power that's hardly being considered at all" against the Russian invasion—and nonviolent power—and that it's something that ought to terrify Putin. He'll explain how improvised nonviolent power played a crucial role in earlier struggles, like the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968, and how more prepared nonviolent power can be more effective today. Lakey is the author of books including How We Win: A guide to nonviolent direct action campaigning.

We've celebrated pollinators aplenty on the program—but this week we help the folks of the Adamant Co-op celebrate black flies. The Adamant Blackfly Festival is their "annual free, family-friendly, bug-centric celebration," taking place 11 am - 3 pm this Saturday, June 4, 2022. Organizer Andrea Serota will tell us what's to love about the festival and the fly.
