Against the Vietnam War : Writings by Activists, Paperback by Robbins, Mary Susannah (EDT), ISBN 0742559149, ISBN-13 9780742559141, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US This volume brings together both recent and historical writings by anti-Vietnam War activists that together provide a broad overview of both some of the conceptual underpinnings of anti-war activism of the era and the experiences of activists who risked much in their efforts to bring the war to an end. Following a reflection on memory and the war by draft resister Dave Harris and a brief history of the anti-war movement by activist and popular historian Howard Zinn, sixteen pieces detail resistance to the war on the domestic front and within the military. These writings include Noam Chomsky on the responsibility of intellectuals, Martin Luther King's speech opposing the war, poems by Daniel Berrigan, and discussions of resistance by anti-war veterans. Also included are writings by former Senator Eugene McCarthy, peace activist and Chicago Seven defendant Dave Dellinger, and others on the consequences of the war.
