| 3D Dialogue: Ursula Franklin and Pacifism - 1303 sec Jesse Hirsh, host of 3D Dialogue, interviews Professor Ursula Franklin regarding her latest book, The Ursula Franklin Reader: Pacifism as a Map. Dr. Franklin is a distinguished author, scientist, feminist, activist, and Quaker, who has written extensively on the role of technology in society.
In this interview, we deal with the rise of techno-fascism and the need for feminism and social justice in drafting a map for us to use in moving towards a society of peace, instead of one based on war.
