Huge protest against the Vietnam war

Vintage archival footage, from tv news coverage, with Hal Simms as tv news anchor or announcer, and Bob Schieffer reporting: The 1971 anti-war demonstration in Washington D.C. had between 200,000 and 500,000 peaceful demonstrators. It was very mainstream. Burns instead skewed his coverage in the tv series (episode 10) to emphasize the "May Day Tribe" and its willingness to destroy property.

Good speech from John Kerry, as a young man and member of Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW). Kerry's open-air speech was not covered in the Burns series, although Kerry's anti-war testimony to Congress features prominently in the documentary.

Noam Chomsky speaking at public event April 4, 2014. It's not clear where the event took place from information on YouTube.

At minute 3:50 Chomsky praises the peace movement for its resistance in early 2003 to Bush-Cheney's invasion of Iraq, "the first time in the history of the imperial world that there have been massive protests PRIOR to the invasion."

TPF is proud to have been a part of that opposition to the illegal and wrong-headed invasion and occupation of Iraq.
