| Comment: | This was written by Adam Doster who used a Next Left Notes
photo in the piece. All in all it's not too bad although it ends with the National Structure panel and the concerns of the POC caucus rather than the final plenary which was VERY productive and inspiring. There is a mechanism for posting comments at the end of the article. |

| Comment: | "Students for a Democratic Society Rides Again"
Once upon a time, to be young was to be radical. In the 1960's, Students for a Democratic Society was one of the main organizing movements rallying against the Vietnam War, for civil rights, feminism and environmentalism. But it fell into chaos and disintegrated by 1972, leaving the controversial Weather Underground in its wake. This weekend, SDS will hold its first national convention in 37 years in Chicago. The group has been revived by a new generation of college and high school students and we'll tag along as they gather. Then, Barbara chats with a new member of SDS and the first president of the organization when it was established in 1960. |
