Short biography of Frank Showler, an anti-capitalist and pacifist who died at the age of 102.
Abstract: -
Excerpt:
Despite the horrors and despair of the past century, there have always been those who have borne witness to and resisted them. And therein lies our history and our hope. Such a perosnwas Frank Showler, who lost last Thursday at the age of 102. Born in the aftermath of the mass slaughter of WWI, Frank was part of a generation who came by their pacifism and anti-capitalism honestly, having inherited the wounds and trauma of the previous decade and challenged themselves to sincerely ask: how do we prevent that from ever happening again, and how do we transform a system that perpetuates and profits from mass slaughter.
