Tom Hayden
2012 marks the 50th Anniversary of the Port Huron Statement, the manifesto that began the seminal Students for a Democratic Society (SDS). Tom Hayden was the principle author of this document, which remains as relevant today as it was in 1962. Tom's breadth of experience and vision is unique in the peace movement. As a civil rights worker in the south, a peace activist, and a superb chronicler of our social history as it was -- and is -- unfolding, Tom's analysis always pierces the fog of misrepresentation and gets to the heart of the matter. No one understands social/political movements better than Tom Hayden, and his ideas for the future of democracy are critical in these times.
Tom combines the savvy of a political strategist, who spent 18 years in the California State Legislature, with the heart of a life-long activist who is committed to systemic change. When in the CA State Legislature, he was called "the conscience of the senate," and he maintained a 100% approval rating from the Sierra Club for his environmental record. Today --- 50 years after the Port Huron Statement --- Tom remains a committed activist, teacher, writer, and political philosopher.
Tom's new book, "Inspiring Participatory Democracy," will be available at this event, as will some of his earlier books, including copies of the "Port Huron Statement" with an updated forward.
This will be an historic event! Bring your kids, grandkids, mentees, relatives, friends, co-workers, and anyone else who cares (or should care) about the direction of our country.
