Description

An audio recording of an oral history of Judy Berger on life in Hillsboro in the 1960s and during the Vietnam War. Berger talks about public opinion in Oregon starting to change when Oregon senators Wayne Morse and Mark Hatfield start to speak out. She mentions local anti-war demonstrations at Portland State and teacher Jack Kirkwood writing anti-war letters to the very conservative Hillsboro Argus and the Oregonian.
