This is What's New
 
 

March 3, 2007 - There are some new links in the '60s Web sites and Activism Links pages. In Book News & Reviews, you'll find the latest review and a link to a radio broadcast featuring the voices of Bob Zellner, Marilyn Webb, Gloria Richardson and Verandah Porche.

February 1, 2007 - I added excerpts from Stew Albert's interview to the More Interviews page. Click the link above to find it.

January 27, 2007 - I've added another Ramparts. This one features Michele Ray's cover story on the killing of Che Guevara. Also in the issue are articles by Andrew Kopkind exposing the McCarthy campaign, K.S. Karol on China, and articles by Max Geismar and Lawrence Ferlinghetti. Click the '60s Stuff button to find it.

January 25, 2007 - A September 1969 copy of Ramparts with articles by Eldridge Cleaver, Seymour Hersh, David Horowitz (!) and Donald Duncan, along with an open letter to Stokely Carmichael, a poem by Lawrence Ferlinghetti, and more. Click on the '60s Stuff button to get it.

January 23, 2007 - I've added an mp3 of my interview with WFAW in Wisconsin. On the more interviews page, you'll find brief interviews with Abbie Hoffman, Carl Oglesby, Tuli Kupferberg and Staughton Lynd. Many more will be added in the coming days.

December 9, 2006: I've added the Publisher's Weekly review and a link to my piece in the December 15th issue of The Week on oral histories to the Books News & Reviews page.

October 26 - I went back and reinterviewed the author to fill out some holes in the interview.

October 25 - Posted a review from Booklist on the "Book News & Reviews" page.

October 8 - Several photos have been added to David Cline's page in the photo album. More broken links have been corrected.

October 4 - I'm especially pleased to be able to post David Cline's letters home from Vietnam. David, one of the folks profiled in the book, came from a conservative working-class family near Buffalo, New York. David's ancestors fought in nearly every American war, and when it was his turn he went to do his duty. The letters are remarkable not only for their vivid honesty about life on the front lines but also in the way they show his growth from callow youth and obedient grunt to a young man excited about the world of art, philosophy and radical politics. Click here to read the letters.

September 28 - I've added a number of entries to the "More Interviews" page. These include interviews with five children of the people profiled in the book. There are also interviews with Carolyn Goodman and Ben Chaney, mother and brother respectively of two of the three young civil rights workers killed in Mississippi in 1964.

September 26 - A copy of The Realist can now be downloaded from the '60s Stuff page. The site is still a veritable "Where's Waldo" of broken links and poor grammar. If you encounter any problems, and I'm sure you will, feel free to email me and point them out.

September 20 - Pretty much everything, actually.
