A good summary on Graeber and his ties to various Marxist groups, particularly SDS and the Weather Underground via the Movement for a Democratic Society: David Graeber

Graeber didn’t become an activist until after the massive 1999 World Trade Organization protests in Seattle. At the time an associate professor at Yale, he realized that the sort of movement he had always wanted to join had come into being while he was concentrating on his academic career. . .Original members of the 2006 Movement for a Democratic Society board included[5]; Elliott Adams, Senia Barragan (Student Representative), David Barsamian, Noam Chomsky, Carl Davidson, Bernardine Dohrn, Bill Fletcher Jr, Bert Garskof, David Graeber, Tom Hayden, Gerald Horne, Mike James, Robin D G Kelley, Mike Klonsky, Ethelbert Miller, Charlene Mitchell, Michael Rossman, Mark Rudd, Howard Zinn. On February 17, 2007, the Movement for a Democratic Society held a well attended conferenceat New York City’s New School University[6]. The event was held in the Graduate Center, 65 Fifth Avenue, and about 100 participants were in attendance. The meeting featured several speakers who are well known figures on the U.S. Left and an agenda that centered around electing a board of directors for MDS, Incorporated – the non-profit arm of MDS that was founded last August in Chicago, at the national Students for a Democratic Society convention. . .

At the time an associate professor at Yale, he realized that the sort of movement he had always wanted to join had come into being while he was concentrating on his academic career his academic career was stalling and that he would never be able to satisfy his lust for power unless he hitched his wagon to an anarchic movement manipulating ignorant thugs into terrorizing the streets and destroying Democracy from within...
