Why I Re-Planted Outside Louisville with My Family | Filmmaker Kenneth Stevenson | Ep 37
Kenneth Stevenson is a filmmaker illustrating stories centered on bodily autonomy, the virtue of suffering, self-governance, diversity of thought, voluntaryism, and the struggle of displaced transcendentalists. He frequently draws inspiration from punk / y’alternative rock music and Libertarianism to express his frustrations with centralized power and oppressive ideologies.
During Part 3 of 3, Kenneth opens up about the murder that happened on his street in Louisville, Kentucky, its effects on his immediate family, and the perspective gained from hearing the opinions of the neighbors and the police.
Kenneth and host, Sienna Mae Heath, explore the nature of the liberty conscience, worries about loved ones’ ideological capture, and discerning what are the real or biggest threats while entertaining conspiracy theories. Rooted in free will, liberty is beautiful and yet cursed with its price: eternal vigilance. Americans owe it to each other to shoulder the burden of vigilance so that there is headspace for one to live in the present moment.
