Draft Counseling 101

The Good War and Those Who Refused to Fight It is the story of men guided by principle to take the unpopular position of pacifism in the face of World War II. In the face of criticism and scorn, these CO's challenged the limits of democracy and applied their principles of non-violence to pioneer social movements that transformed America in the years to follow. This revealing look at questions of war, conscience, activism and the spiritual life of committed individuals was funded by ITVS, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the Mac Arthur Foundation.


Everything you need to know about conscientious objection.

"The Good War" and the CO Handbook equip you with the information to understand the ins and outs of military service, drafts, and conscientious objection. The DVD will provide you with the tools you need to effectively resist or refuse military service as well as the philosophical background of pacifism and conscientious objection.

The CODVD is available for purchase on-line through this web site.
