#RIP Mike Gravel W/ Dan Ellsberg & Gravel's Daughter

Mike Gravel, the Alaska Senator and two-time presidential candidate, died on Saturday at 91. Dan Ellsberg, the former defense analyst who leaked the Pentagon Papers in 1971, eulogizes Mike Gravel, the late Alaska senator, who entered the classified documents into the Congressional Record. Ellsberg is joined by Lynne Mosier, Gravel's daughter. Both praise his moral courage and urge others to honor his memory by challenging political cowardice. Gravel's daughter Lynne Mosier shares her memories, talks about what was important to her father and calls out The New York Times for disrespecting him in an obit written by someone who died in 2018. Ellsberg warns, "we humans won't get through this nuclear era, this era of climate change without a lot more moral courage of the kind that is extremely rare and that Mike Ravel showed."
