Back in the days of the Free Speech Movement, Students for a Democratic Society, the Weather Underground and dozens of causes for the socially misfit and downtrodden, the 1960s and early 1970s stand alone as a rallying point which nearly ignited a modern day total rebellion within the U. S. Slogans were “Question Authority,” “Make Love, Not War,” “Tune in and Drop Out” and “Don’t Trust Anyone Over 30.” Those are the printable ones. The revolt was fueled in part by the Vietnam War, the Black Panthers organization, Timothy Leary’s LSD trips, the bombing of government buildings, draft card burnings and the grapepicker’s strike, to name a few excuses.
