Judgement call: Kevin Sell on campaigning with Defend Our Juries

‘We are asked to be dignified, totally nonconfrontational, and nonviolent at all times.’

There has been a lot of conversation among Friends about the mass civil disobedience being organised by Defend Our Juries (DOJ). I see much misinformation around, some describing DOJ actions as violent or antisemitic. I would like to offer Friends my personal perspective, as someone active in the campaign, who has witnessed events first-hand.
