Excellent documentary of SDS through interviews with members

This is a wonderful addition to the number of excellent documentary films that enable young people today to learn what the world-changing movements of the sixties were all about. Interviews with committed activists, all of whom are working in some form of educational, political, union, or social work activities today, will move those who do remember as well as those who wonder about the connections among the civil rights, antiwar, and SDS movements. Like Freedom on My Mind, Berkeley in the Sixties, Eyes on the Prize, this film shows the amazing efforts some young people made to try to get government to live up live up to its ideals, to make the U.S. a participatory democracy, not just one in name only.

The documentary is a form of non-fiction storytelling that aims to present factual information, insights, and perspectives on real-world subjects, events, issues, or people. Documentaries can cover a wide range of topics, including history, science, culture, social issues, nature, biographies, and more.
