The Sixties: Years of Hope, Days of Rage
Todd Gitlin, the highly regarded writer, media critic, and professor of sociology at the University of California, Berkeley, has written an authoritative and compelling account of this supercharged decade--a decade he helped shape as an early president of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and an organizer of the first national demonstration against the Vietnam war. Part critical history, part personal memoir, part celebration, and part meditation, this critically acclaimed work resurrects a generation on all its glory and tragedy.

PhD student @CUHistoryDept, grad worker @UAW @SW_Columbia. Labor, finance, political economy in postwar US. Words @washingtonpost @theprospect @jewishcurrents.
Another parlor game: who from the 2010s US left scene is most likely to do a Todd Gitlin “The Sixties” type book in 15 years?
Ideas, Politics & Power: The American Prospect is an independent political magazine. We cover Washington and beyond like no one else does.
In homage to Todd Gitlin, who died in February, @rkuttnerwrites revisits his 1987 book, “The Sixties: Years of Hope, Days of Rage.” It’s profoundly relevant today, especially his insights about the awkward relationship between radicals and liberals. https://t.co/6YpiwVMP5G
Mad online about land use. D.C. policy boss @ggwash. Not paid to tweet, so DM me gossip. When I see the glory, I ain’t gotta worry.
thinking too much about how i was reading todd gitlin’s the sixties while my partner was reading american pastoral when chesa boudin was recalled, in the wake of learning that national dems were squabbling (bc they don’t know how to fight) for the cop dude running in our ward
