Important Memoir about the ideals of the '60's,
By
This review is from: Reunion: A Memoir (Hardcover)
Tom Hayden may be best known as Jane Fonda's ex, but his historical importance comes from the fact that he was a founding member of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and played the crucial role in drafting the 'Port Huron Statement', the document which defined the foundation, at least, of the idealism of the student left. Hayden saw it come together and watched it fall apart, but while the summer soldiers came and went he applied himself to practical politics and is today a California State Senator.Hayden's story is sad in many ways and he offers trenchant criticisms of the unreality of much of the radicals politics, and some re-thinking of positions described in his 'Port Huron Statement' and 'Trial'. |
