Last fall, 500 journalists, academics, and veterans took the Pentagon to task for attempting to issue a whitewashed version of the Vietnam War. Among the signatories to that complaint were the likes of Julian Bond, who helped establish the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee; Tom Hayden, who was one of the “Chicago Seven”; Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary; Daniel Ellsberg of Pentagon Papers fame’ and Larry Korb, a former high level Defense Department official. All were at the #LessonsofVietnam program at the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church in Washington DC last week.
