Bob Fass 1933-2021
Bob Fass (...) hosted the influential New York City radio show Radio Unnameable for more than 50 years
(...)
His late night show introduced dozens of major folk artists and served as a megaphone for the emerging 1960s counterculture.
At the height of its popularity, Radio Unnameable ran five hours and aired five nights a week.
Fass left New York in 2019 and continued to do the show from his home in North Carolina, though it was on just one night a week for three hours.
But Fass continued to begin each broadcast with his signature greeting, "Good morning, cabal!"
The cabal, as he called it, was comprised of his countercultural "conspirators" who opposed the Vietnam War and marched for civil rights.
And his show on WBAI-FM, the listener-supported Pacifica Radio station in New York, served as their broadcast meeting house.
"Bob Fass more or less invented what we call live radio," said Larry Josephson, one of the other WBAI live radio personalities who followed in Fass' footsteps.
"No structure, no script, all improvised.
And there was nothing like Bob's program on the radio at the time."

Thomas Emmet Hayden 1939-2016
Tom Hayden (...) burst out of the 1960s counterculture as a radical leader of America’s civil rights and antiwar movements, but rocked the boat more gently later in life with a progressive political agenda as an author and California state legislator
(...)
During the racial unrest and antiwar protests of the ’60s and early ’70s, Mr. Hayden was one of the nation’s most visible radicals.
He was a founder of Students for a Democratic Society, a defendant in the Chicago Seven trial after riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention, and a peace activist who married Jane Fonda, went to Hanoi and escorted American prisoners of war home from Vietnam.
As a civil rights worker, he was beaten in Mississippi and jailed in Georgia.
In his cell he began writing what became the Port Huron Statement, the political manifesto of S.D.S. and the New Left that envisioned an alliance of college students in a peaceful crusade to overcome what it called repressive government, corporate greed and racism.
Its aim was to create a multiracial, egalitarian society.
Like his allies the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Senator Robert F. Kennedy, who were assassinated in 1968, Mr. Hayden opposed violent protests but backed militant demonstrations, like the occupation of Columbia University campus buildings by students and the burning of draft cards.
He also helped plan protests that, as it happened, turned into clashes with the Chicago police outside the Democratic convention.
In 1974, with the Vietnam War in its final stages after American military involvement had all but ended, Mr. Hayden and Ms. Fonda, who were by then married, traveled across Vietnam, talking to people about their lives after years of war, and produced a documentary film, “Introduction to the Enemy.” http://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/25/us/tom-hayden-dead.html

He surfaced only in the mid-1960s, but before the end of the decade many rock musicians were citing him as an influence.
His rendition of “Handsome Johnny” became an anti-Vietnam War anthem. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/04/23/arts/music/richie-havens-guitarist-and-singer-dies-at-72.html

Green Beret master sergeant who came home from Vietnam a disillusioned hero in 1965

In an America torn by protests against the war in the late 1960s and early ’70s, Mr. Duncan was often in the news, although not as prominently as the pediatrician Dr. Benjamin Spock, or the actress Jane Fonda, who was photographed laughing and applauding on an antiaircraft gun in Hanoi.
(...)
But in 1966, well before the Tet offensive and the My Lai massacre stirred national discontent, Mr. Duncan was one of the first returning veterans to portray the war as a moral quagmire that had little to do with fighting the spread of Communism, as American leaders were portraying it.
Sergeant Duncan, who went to war convinced it was an anti-Communist crusade, ended his Special Forces duty a changed man.
A 10-year veteran, he rejected an offer of an officer’s commission and left the Army.
Back home, he became a fierce critic of the war, writing articles and a memoir and speaking at rallies across the country with the singer Joan Baez, the writer Norman Mailer and the comedian Dick Gregory.

Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District
CITATION 393 US 503 (1969)
ARGUED Nov 12, 1968 DECIDED Feb 24, 1969
In December 1965, a group of students in Des Moines held a meeting in the home of 16-year-old Christopher Eckhardt to plan a public showing of their support for a truce in the Vietnam war.
They decided to wear black armbands throughout the holiday season and to fast on December 16 and New Year's Eve.
The principals of the Des Moines school learned of the plan and met on December 14 to create a policy that stated that any student wearing an armband would be asked to remove it, with refusal to do so resulting in suspension.
On December 16, Mary Beth Tinker and Christopher Eckhardt wore their armbands to school and were sent home.
The following day, John Tinker did the same with the same result.
The students did not return to school until after New Year's Day,
the planned end of the protest.
Through their parents, the students sued the school district for violating the students' right of expression and sought an injunction to prevent the school district from disciplining the students.
The district court dismissed the case and held that the school district's actions were reasonable to uphold school discipline.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit affirmed the decision without opinion.
(...)
The Supreme Court held that the armbands represented pure speech that is entirely separate from the actions or conduct of those participating in it.
The Court also held that the students did not lose their First Amendment rights to freedom of speech when they stepped onto school property.
In order to justify the suppression of speech, the school officials must be able to prove that the conduct in question would "materially and substantially interfere" with the operation of the school.
In this case, the school district's actions evidently stemmed from a fear of possible disruption rather than any actual interference. https://www.oyez.org/cases/1968/21

‘The Whole World Is Watching’: The 1968 Democratic Convention, 50 Years Later
On Aug. 28, 1968, violent clashes in Chicago between demonstrators and police produced one of the most polarizing showdowns of the 1960s.
People are still debating what it all meant.
The New York Times Aug. 28, 2018
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/28/
A tumultuous season of assassinations, riots and war, 1968 was the year that changed America, in ways that still unfold today.
And part of that momentous drama played out on summer nights in Chicago when blood ran in the streets and police orchestrated a riot as anti-war protesters tried to march upon the Democratic national convention calling for an end to the Vietnam war.
After four days and nights of violence, 668 people had been arrested, 425 demonstrators were treated at temporary medical facilities, 200 were treated on the spot, 400 given first aid for tear gas exposure and 110 went to hospital.
A total of 192 police officers were injured.

Dr. King delivered the address, known variously as “Beyond Vietnam” and “A Time to Break Silence,” at Riverside Church in Manhattan on April 4, 1967.
“A time comes when silence is betrayal,” he said.
“And that time has come for us in relation to Vietnam.”
He added: “If we continue, there will be no doubt in my mind and in the mind of the world that we have no honorable intentions in Vietnam.
If we do not stop our war against the people of Vietnam immediately, the world will be left with no other alternative than to see this as some horrible, clumsy and deadly game we have decided to play.”
The speech, which articulated what was then a relatively unpopular position, touched off a firestorm.
In an editorial titled “Dr. King’s Disservice to His Cause,” Life magazine called it “a demagogic slander that sounded like a script for Radio Hanoi.”
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People described the address as “a serious tactical error.”

Ali's boldest move — and most controversial — came in 1967.
At the height of the Vietnam War, he refused induction into the U.S. military, saying, "I ain't got no quarrel with them Viet Cong."
"My intention is to box, to win a clean fight.
But in war, the intention is to kill, kill, kill, kill and continue killing innocent people," he said.
Some called him a traitor.
For those in a growing anti-war movement, Ali was a hero who paid a significant price.
He was convicted of draft evasion, and though he avoided jail time, he was stripped of his heavyweight title and banned from boxing at the age of 25, just as he was entering his prime.
It would be more than three years before Ali returned to the ring.
