previous generations.

“We are people of this generation, bred in at least modest comfort, housed now in universities, looking uncomfortably at the world we inherit. When we were kids the United States was the wealthiest and strongest country in the world . . . . As we grew, however, our comfort was penetrated by events too troubling to dismiss . . . . We would replace power rooted in possession, privilege, or circumstance by power and uniqueness rooted in love, reflectiveness, reason, and creativity. As a social system we seek the establishment of a democracy of individual participation.”
- Tom Hayden

Protests often turned violent. Students for a
Democratic Society (SDS)
splintered, creating many new groups, including the Weathermen.

voices dominated these sessions.

Anti-war demonstrators would recite chants such as “Hey, hey, LBJ. How
many kids have you killed today?”

Many students attended college
in order to obtain a draft deferment, so
they could avoid military service.

draft dodgers amnesty.
