1968

I watched a show the other day. Title? 1968. It was fantastic. If you ever have the chance to see it, whether you are an old hippie or a young person wondering what it was like...watch it.
All of the changes that were going on in that year. Assassinations...Bobby Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr. The Vietnam war....The draft....protests....civil rights changes....women's rights.....A year of change. Make love...not war. Imagine that you would be going to a jungle for your senior trip. I mean, seriously, young men. Imagine YOU had been drafted. It was either sit on the Group W bench or head for Canada. What would you do? What if they brought back the draft today? What would you do?
You have got to see the show 1968.
Peace..............Out
