Featuring interviews with over thirty male and female nonviolent activists and historians, The Boys Who Said NO!: Draft Resistance and The Vietnam War shows how their personal and collective acts of nonviolent resistance – influenced by the principles of Gandhian nonviolence and the impact of the civil rights movement – were a critical part of the antiwar movement. Their leadership and personal sacrifices had a direct effect on ending the war, and are an important example for today's movements for social justice.
95 minutes. Directed by Judith Ehrlich.
