Not only was it one of the largest gatherings to oppose the Vietnam War up to that time, it was also notable for its escalation of tactics from protest to mass resistance. Over 600 activists were arrested on October 21 in both planned and spontaneous acts of nonviolent civil disobedience, signaling a new strategy for anti-war organizing.

In 1971, Ellsberg gave the top-secret Pentagon Papers to the New York Times and Washington Post, risking life in prison. The 7,000 pages he helped to compile reveal how U.S. government officials repeatedly lied to the public about the origins and conduct of the war. Yet, he was not interviewed for \The Vietnam War\u201d 10 episode series on PBS.

We demanded an end to all military strategies that target civilians with anti-personnel weapons and drone strikes as well as US aid to clean up Agent Orange, land mines and unexploded ordnance still claiming lives in Indochina.

Environmentalist Charles Cray spoke of the continued devastation caused by Agent Orange and buried mines still killing and maiming children today.

CALCAV was started by a group of prominent clergy in the fall of 1965 including, Reverend William Sloane Coffin, Father Phillip Berrrigan, Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, Reverend Richard Neuhaus and Rabbi Balfour Brickner. As an interfaith and non-pacifist organization it had wide appeal across the nation. Dick set about to create an organization that by 1969 had 65 chapters and more than 20,000 members. In addition to its grass roots organizing efforts across the country and its annual clergy and laity lobbying\/protest effort in Washington, CALCAV was responsible for authoring several books including, In the Name of America, a study of war crimes committed by U.S. troops and Military Chaplains, a critical look at the role of chaplains during war. In addition the organization placed a chaplain in Stockholm to support the more than 2,000 deserters in Sweden and mounted a national advertising campaign against the war engaging ad firms in New York and San Francisco. CALCAV organized Dr. King\u2019s famous 1967 Vietnam speech in opposition to the war at Riverside Church in New York City. King became a Co-Chair of CALCAV immediately following that speech. Few organizations did more to organize in the cities and towns across the nation. Dick served, with Lee Webb, as the Co-Director of Vietnam Summer and was very involved with the Mobilization to End the War which was responsible for many of the nation\u2019s largest anti-war protests.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u00a0\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u00a0\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u00a0\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style\ text-align: center;\\u003e\u003ca href\https:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-HOgkhup-H5c\/YBsL9uREC5I\/AAAAAAAACu4\/JBl32oJsaNI42PuSgXg6bJ18DeinoOEOgCLcBGAsYHQ\/s1415\/Carol%2BJensen.jpg\\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style\text-align: center;\\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eREV.
