Only they knew about the dynamite in the refrigerator. They actually did something about all the lies we've been told by our government, all the pathetic stories to cover up our involvement in Vietnam. Pub Date: Jan. One of these days maybe someone will write an objective history of 70s armed radicalism that presumes that the ideals adherents upheld were truly felt by some but not others, that some actions had positive effects, some neutral, some negative, that there was ultimately a kaleidoscope of motivations, morals, and emotions at play on both sides, and whatever happened was the product of that complexity. Seller Inventory Nowhere is this as clear as his support for the FBI's crimes that are actually on record. But Dohrn wasn't a bombmaker, nor was she shooting people on the street: in fact it is striking how small the toll on civilians was, perhaps why Americans were able to mostly ignore it. Gandhi and the writings of many persons associated with The War Resisters' League had had a significant influence on me, so much so that I not only thought of myself as a radical pacifist, but also practiced a vegetarian lifestyle. The book opens in the late 60s, when it seemed like radical ideas might change the world, and revolution was just around the corner. I think for me this book gets about a 3.

Pope reverts to mask-less old ways amid growing criticism Oct 21, The younger members of the working class became the focus of the organizing effort because they felt the oppression strongly in regards to the military draft, low-wage jobs, and schooling. These aren't my politics. In its slant and contempt for its subjects, Days of Rage suffers from precisely the same weakness as most radical-leaning histories of the period: it shows its hand and its sympathies early, and from that point on makes it clear over and over that you can't trust its characterizations.

What's missing, however, is the broader context and any real insight, without which one might wonder what they were all so excited about.

Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: Peter Filene Reader: Jacquelyn Dowd Hall Reader: Jerma Jackson © 2006 Blake Slonecker ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT BLAKE SLONECKER: The Politics of Space: Student Communes, Political Counterculture, and the Columbia University Protest of 1968 (Under the direction of Peter Filene) This thesis examines the Columbia University protest of April 1968 through the lens of space. It concludes that the student communes established in occupied campus buildings were free spaces that facilitated the protestors’ reconciliation of political and social difference, and introduced Columbia students to the practical possibilities of democratic participation and student autonomy. This thesis begins by analyzing the roots of the disparate organizations and issues involved in the protest, including SDS, SAS, and the Columbia School of Architecture. Next it argues that the practice of participatory democracy and maintenance of student autonomy within the political counterculture of the communes awakened new political sensibilities among Columbia students. Finally, this thesis illustrates the simultaneous growth and factionalization of the protest community following the police raid on the communes and argues that these developments support the overall claim that the free space of the communes was of fundamental importance to the protest. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Peter Filene planted the seed of an idea that eventually turned into this thesis during the sort of meeting that has come to define his role as my advisor—I came to him with vast and vague ideas that he helped sharpen into a manageable project.

  • Columbia ’68: What Happened?
    Columbia ’68: What Happened? Theo Sweeting (University of Nottingham) Finally, what long range goal is worthy of this rebellion? Obviously the question is not whether to work for revolution – armed, communist revolution – in America, but how, and what form it will take – John Jacobs, May 1968 1 John Jacobs sat down to type this statement, part of his revolutionary manifesto for the University of Columbia protests of 1968, ‘Bringing the War Home.’ But even a man so enraptured by the inevitability of revolutionary change as Jacobs could probably not have predicted that more than 40 years later the chain of events this document helped catalyse would be remembered as a defining moment for the American New Left in the 1960s, particularly in organisational histories of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS). Jacobs signed this document from his position as a member of the occupations of Low Library and Mathematics hall on the Columbia campus. In the wake of Tom Hayden’s famous call to create “two, three, many Columbias” across global campuses, Jacob’s words took on a prophetic tone in the immediate aftermath of the Columbia protests, when students from the Sorbonne in Paris sent the Strike Coordinating Committee (SCC), a telegram: “We’ve occupied a building in your honor. What do we do now?” 2 Jacob’s plan unfolded further when he and fellow Columbia SDS militants Mark Rudd and Ted Gold helped found the 1 John Jacobs, ‘Bringing the War Home’, May 1968; UPAC, Box 13, Folder 5, 1 2 Tom Hayden, ‘Two, Three, Many Columbias’, Ramparts, June 15, 1968.
