TUC Radio: Derrick Jensen: Bringing Down Civilization
One hour lecture/discussion with Derrick Jensen. Funny, if the name had been John Zerzan, I might have ignored it or stopped listening within a few minutes. But since this guy was unknown to me, he got past my defenses, and now he's making a lot of reasonable points, even if they are parallel with Zerzan and the primitivist anarchists.

Poking around derrickjensen.org, I find Zerzan listed among his book recommendations, along with "Myth of the Machine: Technics and Human Development" and "Pacifism As Pathology: Reflections on the Role of Armed Struggle in North America".

I'll keep listening, but advocating violence doesn't help win me over.
