Publisher's Synopsis
The 21st Century hate/blame America progressives, seeking radical, socialist change by violence if necessary, came out of the Sixties Revolution. The history of the Sixties Left provides the context and the origins of the anger and socialist aspirations of progressives. Saul Alinsky and George Soros are merely shiny bookends of this history. For decades it was Tom Hayden who led the way from riots at the Democrat Convention in 1968 to Progressives for Obama. Hayden's story and continuing influence was and is the soul of the American Left. He is the forgiving grandfather of violent elements of AntiFa and Occupy Wall Street. Concentrating on Hayden's most transparent revolutionary activities in Berkeley during 1968-1979, spotlights both the origins and the continuity of the America progressives of 2020 and their intentions to fundamentally transform America. In earlier events, we find Hayden, bare-naked, speaking honestly and acting boldly upon his inner most beliefs. We find other relevant persons and organizations dedicated to a socialist revolution any means, bloody or not. Why do so many hate America?Tom Hayden tells us from his grave. Miracles, declared and counted, obituaries rapidly elevated Tom Hayden to progressive sainthood. Hayden was a true founding father of both the New Left's Students for Democratic Society (SDS), California's own Green Revolution, and of America's progressive future.
