Summary:In this interview, we discuss Kling's argument for when nonlethal violent protest can be justified. We address specific questions regarding what violence means and what criteria a nonlethal violent protest must meet in order for it to be justified. We also discuss how her framework applies to specific examples, including climate activists blocking traffic and white nationalists protesting in Charlottesville.
