DESCRIPTION:Vietnam War, Dissent, and the U.S. Military\n\nShaping San Francisco Public 
 Talk\nWednesday, March 31\n\nEric Quezada Center for\nCulture & 
 Politics\n7:30 PM * FREE\n518 Valencia Street (near 16th)\n\n"Roxanne 
 Dunbar-Ortiz's project [in An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United 
 States] is to bring us face to face with the astounding fact that today’s 
 U.S. government and it's military continue to rely on the legal fictions 
 and practical tactics that developed during centuries of total war against 
 the indigenous populations of North America." - Chris Carlsson\n\nA 
 half-century after the Vietnam War officially began, we’ll look back at 
 military mutinies, the rise of the volunteer army in response to the 
 “Vietnam Syndrome,” and situate the Vietnam War in the long history of 
 U.S. military aggression, even pre-dating the founding of the United 
 States. Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, Paul Cox, Deni Leonard, Michael 
 Blecker.\n\nThese talks are meant as an antidote to historical amnesia, to 
 change the climate of critical discussion in San Francisco, and as a place 
 to meet and talk unmediated by corporations, official spokespeople, 
 religion, political parties, or dogma.\n\n \n\nWe are grateful to the 
 \nCity Lights Foundation, \nOther Avenues Grocery Cooperative, \nRainbow 
 Grocery Cooperative, and the Wild Equity Institute for helping make these 
 Talks happen.\n\n\nPhoto of the "Defeat Nixon March" on Market Street by
