One of the biggest forces in the left movement on college campuses and elsewhere in 1968 was Students for a Democratic Society, headquartered at the time in Chicago. We spoke to Bernardine Dohrn, Mike Klonsky and Susan Klonsky about working inside SDS, getting bugged by the FBI, meeting with representatives from the North Vietnamese and lending Fred Hampton a bunch of office furniture.
