Background to the Vietnam War:At the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, Ho Chi Minh and a small group of Vietnamese nationalists met with President Wilson and asked for his support for an independent Vietnam, but unwilling to cause conflict with our French allies, President Wilson rebuffed the...
Okay. Let's now take a look at my transition from anthropocentric activism to biocentric activism. In spring '68 Bob Ockene had noticed that the sinister U.S. MonoMassMedia (MMM) were conditioning Americans to accept the Vietnam War for an utterly indefinite period of time. So we did a ...
We did have concrete criticisms on single issues, such as the Vietnam war, but we did not develop any comprehensive alternative system of values and ideas. Our critique was based on intuitive feeling; we lived and embodied our protest rather than verbalizing and systematizing it. The ...
