- Documentary
July 12th, 2022 would have been the 100th birthday of Sen. Mark Hatfield, so this season we Revisit the Moment of his 30-year career in the United States Senate. Our guides are the voices and memories of those who worked closely with him and observed his leadership. We will hear about the times he stood for what he believed without fear of the consequences; his ability to work across the aisle for what was best for both Oregon and America; and his career-long defining work against nuclear weapons and war.
In this first episode we hear how Mark Hatfield risked his political career to stand-up against President Johnson and the war in Vietnam.
