No other marks or highlights noted in the book. Stated: "First Vintage Book Edition, February 1970" "In this explosive and critically important book, ... liberal Justice of the Supreme Court speaks out eloquently in behalf of the waves of rebellion that are sweeping the nation and, indeed, the entire world. Justice Douglas argues that young people are right to rise up against widespread poverty, segregation, inequitable laws, and inadequate education. They are right to protest the pollution of America-a pollution that befouls the natural elements, the political system, and freedom itself. He points out that although violence has no constitutional sanction, it is often the only effective response when grievance keep mounting and most elected spokesmen represent the Establishment."
