  • Philosophy Walk: On Civil Disobedience

    Missouri River Beaver Creek Trail (Hauser Dam Trail) Helena, MT, United States

    In Thoreau's essay Civil Disobedience, Thoreau takes the position that unjust laws exist.  But does that mean we should be content to obey them? What are the alternatives?  Amend them and obey until we have succeeded?  Transgress them at once? In this walk on civil disobedience led by community philosopher Mitch Conway we’ll  explore how we might respond to the world in cases of injustice? Learn more & RSVP here.
