When Tom Hayden died on Oct. 23, we lost a courageous warrior for peace and equality. Hayden was on the front lines of nearly every major progressive struggle for more than 50 years. Vilified by the Right and at times criticized from the Left, Hayden remained steadfast in his commitment to social, economic and racial justice.
Knowledge is power. Educating myself a bit on Mr. Hayden. Looks like a good read.
UPDATE: November 6:
I finished this yesterday. I learned a lot of history and found it interesting to be reading now at the height of the political culture of hatred currently happening in our country. We’ve come a ways but have so much further to go. The people who have fought for peace and equality have not been given enough of our thanks.
peace.
Book on.
