Overview

Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) was the largest and most active student organization of the 1960s and the spearhead of the opposition to the war in Vietnam -- but it was also far more than that, including involvement with the civil rights movement, community organizing, and the women's movement. Through interviews with SDS activists, this book captures the thoughts and actions of people involved in that turbulent decade that changed America.

Synopsis

Rebels With A Cause captures the passion and spirit of a decade when a generation lost its innocence - and helped change America. It is not only for those who lived through the Sixties - but even more for those who didn't, and are curious about that tumultuous decade.
