In 1966 some activists adopted the slogan "Black Power," which represented a new wave of militancy that, frustrated with persistent racism in American society, questioned the relevance and efficacy of nonviolence in addressing racial problems.

The reason we got into so much trouble in Vietnam, and why we are in so much trouble in Iraq now, is that we never learned to use the proper language when referring to these military misadventures.

If they were going to pay their own money and come by car or bus or train to march into the possibility of being hit over the head with a cop’s club, then there had to be millions of people behind them. www.newyorkmetro.com /nymetro/news/rnc/9574   (1461 words)

But Lyndon Johnson lost his presidency in Vietnam, as a sobered George W.

Lyndon Johnson: Insights into a complex man | csmonitor.com THE MANY MOODS OF LBJ: While Lyndon Baines Johnson could be harsh and intimidating, what many don't know, this biography argues, is the degree to which he was also heroic. Yet, instead of being memorialized as a hero, LBJ is more often remembered as a slimy manipulator whose good intentions were sunk in the quagmire of a needless war. At the same time, this is a man who's often full of kindness and carefree bravado, once inviting a random Pakistani camel driver to visit New York City and stay at the Waldorf Astoria, setting off a diplomatic scramble. www.csmonitor.com /2006/0801/p14s02-bogn.html   (997 words)
