Wednesday

was one of the only places in the upper Midwest where you could occasionally see a program examining the anti-draft/anti-Vietnam movements and see some of the activists like Rubin, Hoffman, the Berrigans etc. interviewed or sitting on a panel. WTTW was a place where I could see and hear union organizers, social activists, activists from other countries and so much more.
