I was just a few years too young to go to those protests. One of my old bosses who was at Princeton at the time used to talk of everyone getting tear gassed. I always think of these protests when I'm at the Reflecting Pool and wish I could have been there.
Thanks for doing it, those protests saved a lot of lives. Another movement that was widely criticized but accomplished a great deal. Perhaps it takes many years of historical perspective to finally realize how important civil disobedience really is.
