Tanzania

Second hour of a 2-part visit with war tax resistance (WTR) activists. Each of the 4 people has changed their life to conscientiously refuse to pay for bullets, guns, bombs, and war, and they've worked to call attention to the fact that about half of every income tax dollar goes to the military. Around April 15^th American's dollars are conscripted through taxation, and these 4 guests have said 'no'.

A 2-part visit with war tax resistance activists. Without our money, our country could not carry out war in our name. Every year around April 15^th, Americans are asked to make sure the national coffers are filled, and about half of the income taxes paid go to the military.
