I Was Arrested 1965. I Had Come Back From The Merchant Marines, Got Into Conversations About The War. I Had Never Heard Of Vietnam Until I Was In The Merchant Marines In Constitution Square In Athens, And I Picked Up The New York Herald Or The International Herald Tribune And There Was My First Introduction Of The Word Vietnam.

What Was On The Agenda Was School And Social Life And Those Kinds Of Things. So I Was The Middle Of Five Kids. So I Had The Great Advantage Of Being Able To Play Up To The Older Kids And Play Down To The Younger Kids And I Think That's Part Of What Propelled Me To Become A Teacher At Some Point In My Life. But It Was A Comfortable Childhood. It Was A Privileged Childhood.

The Massive Anti-war Movement, Which I Was A Part Of And Which Was A Major Part Of My Life, Never Stopped The War In Vietnam.

I Proposed A Law That Every Country Where The U.s. Has A Military Base - Those People Should Be Allowed To Vote In The American Election.

Certainly My Parents Were Dr. [benjamin] Spock-driven Parents. So They Were Tolerant.
