Sheehan sounds off
Cindy Sheehan’s “soapbox” is making a temporary stop at Yale this week.
Sheehan, 51, an anti-war activist whose son Casey was killed while serving in Iraq in 2004, made the case for political activism and argued that Democratic politicians should move farther left at a Stiles College Master’s Tea and a Yale Political Union debate Tuesday. The appearance of Sheehan, who is currently promoting her new radio show, “Cindy Sheehan’s Soapbox,” provoked a mock protest and counter-protest from members of the YPU, who stormed the room holding signs at the end of her speech.
