C4SS Senior Fellow and Trustee, Gary Chartier, recently participated in an extensive interview with James Corbett of The Corbett Report. Their topic of discussion was the life, trials and anarchist thought of the individualist-abolitionist anarchist Lysander Spooner.

Gary Chartier’s interview (37:54) is a part of The Corbett Report’s nearly hour long, Shoulders of Giants: Lysander Spooner, exploration of the life of Lysander Spooner.

From the show notes: While statists across America (and around the world) were celebrating the inauguration of Obama last weekend, anti-statists celebrated a festive occasion of their own: the 205th birthday of Lysander Spooner. Join us this week on The Corbett Report as we explore the life, works, and thought of Lysander Spooner, lawyer, entrepreneur, Deist, abolitionist, freethinker, and one of the giants of the American anarchist tradition.
