Christopher Aaron worked for the CIA on the U.S. drone program. After a while, he began realizing how wrong it is and quit. Finally, he gathered up his courage and began speaking out publicly, despite little or no protection under the Whistleblower Protection Act.
In a program titled Drones: Killing Innocents and Stoking War, he spoke 5-5-2016 at the Cambridge Public Library, Central Square Branch (Cambridge, MA). He took care to avoid revealing so-called classified information. Nonetheless the story Christopher tells is riveting, and it clearly calls for action.
