There's a spirt of renewal that's key to the American character, as obvious in our youth today as in any other generation. The difference now is that those meant to be the caretaker of that spirt, to protect our right to express it, are serving the very forces that suppress it.

Did it feel that way in β€œThe β€˜60s”? I imagine that it was like they then, too.

No! With Martin and Bobby and McCarthy and so many others, it felt like there were those in an older generation fighting for us! It's why the assassinations were so devastating.
