By the late 1960s, America felt like it was teetering on the edge
of a vast transformation. Helping push it over that edge was a
brigade of young radicals, the Students for a Democratic Society,
who were fighting the establishment for peace abroad and equality
at home. In "Students for a Democratic Society: A Graphic History,"
the famed graphic novelist Harvey Pekar, the gifted artist Gary
Dumm, the renowned historian Paul Buhle, and a marvelous cast of
they-were-there contributors illustrate their struggle, bringing to
life the tumultuous decade that first defined and then was defined
by the men and women who gathered under the SDS banner.
"
Students for a Democratic Society "captures the idealism and
activism that drove a generation of young Americans to believe that
even one person's actions can help transform the world.
