Zayd Dohrn was born underground - his parents were radicals and counter-culture outlaws, on the run from the FBI. Now Zayd takes us back to the 1970s, when his parents and their young friends in the Weather Underground Organization declared war on the United States government. They brawled with riot cops on the streets of Chicago, bombed the Pentagon and the U.S. Capitol, broke comrades out of pri... more

    Wow. So sad. Seemed the whole way through you were having an honest reckoning with the violent horror your parents caused. Still, a well-told story. Too bad you had to suppress your mind and acquiesce to your parents’ way of thinking in the end. Not that you held your father accountable in the least. It’s obvious you wanted to tell a full story. Your parents’ ways of thinking must be overwhelming. Maybe don’t do art if you’re not committed to the consternation it’s bound to cause. Your parents k... more

    Fascinating program. I was involved in the anti war movement at Tufts University, 1968-1972. I recall despising the Weatherman group because they were violent and elitist Your program made me more empathetic to these activists. But with one exception - Bill Ayers. He demonstrates very little capacity or willingness to engage in self reflection.

  • Fascinating

    I was raised at about the same time as Zayd by progressive, politically active parents. This podcast really resonated with my memories of my childhood, particularly in the way the Vietnam War cast a shadow on my early years. That the podcast is staged against the backdrop of our current political and social climate made for a hopeful reminder that causes and ideas are worth fighting for. But how one fights is of the utmost importance. I found this podcast thought provoking and moving.

  • A story that needs telling

    This podcast is one of the very best I’ve had the privilege of listening to. As a mother and so-called radical, this story hit me like a gut punch—especially when hearing from the children of the revolutionaries. Especially well-done in its nuanced approach to issues of race, revolutionary action, and relationships. This story is timely, thoughtful, and engaging. I’m filled with gratitude to the creators and the participants. Thank you for putting this out into the world. I’d be thrilled to read... more
