Send us a text What would you sacrifice to follow your conscience? In 1969, as the Vietnam War escalates and a nation divides, a young man faces the hardest decision of his life. Bruce Wasser, a Princeton student with a promising future, receives a draft number that makes becoming a soldier a near certainty. While others debate war in lecture halls, Bruce is thrust into a personal battle—should he fight in a war he believes is unjust, or risk everything by standing as a conscientious objector? 90: A Conscientious Objector’s Journey of Quiet Resistance is a gripping memoir of moral courage and quiet defiance. Told through Bruce"s deeply personal lens, this coming-of-age story explores themes of identity, integrity, and the high cost of staying true to one’s values. I took the comments above from an Amazon description of Bruce"s book. After visiting with Bruce I felt it was right in line with what we discussed. But... there"s so much more to Bruce"s life story. Take a listen and maybe you"ll learn a bit about yourself.  Bruce"s book: 90: A Conscientious Objector’s Journey of Quiet Resistance
