Camden 28

How far would you go to stop a war? “The Camden 28″ recalls a 1971 raid on a Camden, New Jersey draft board office by “Catholic Left” activists protesting the Vietnam War and its effects on urban America. Arrested on site in a clearly planned sting, the protesters included four Catholic priests, a Lutheran minister and 23 others.

Premiere: Sept. 11, 2007 at 10PM P.O.V., PBS TV. I’ll be watching it.

P.S. Posted on Sept 12. Watched the doc last night. A brilliant education in democracy!
