Disrupting Genocide: The Journey of Louisville's 'Raytheon 5'

by War Industry Resistors Network (WIRN)

At 5:30am on February 2, 2024, fifteen protesters blocked all entrances to Raytheon Corporation and BAE Systems in south Louisville, successfully shutting down daily operations for the day. LMPD arrested the protestors and they spent half a day in jail. Ten of the protestors plead guilty and accepted a deal while five remained and decided to take the case to trial. This webinar welcomes three members of the Raytheon 5 to discuss their journey from arrest to spectacle of their gag-ordered trial, where all five were found guilty of trespassing on key infrastructure assets.
