Good memory about the Silent Generation.
A lot of the 1960s Red Diaper babies and leftwing political activists that ‘Boomers get blamed for were actually Silent Generation.
Abbey Hoffman was pretty close to 40, so were many of the others of that group. Some were/are WAR BABIES, but the vast majority of that ilk were RED DIAPER BABIES.
The SDSers were mostly BOOMERS!
