The Weather Underground was the radical wing of the socialist group Students for a Democratic Society. The oddest picture is the one where a copy of Rodin's Thinker was vandalized in Cleveland. That is a perfect metaphor for the group -- they destroy thought.

Sgt Wayne Wood They never repaired the Rodin in Cleveland. He still has his battle scars.

SDS, now there's a group I haven't heard about in a while. They certainly represented the misguided youth of their day.

Some of their alumni are prominent in academia now. Obama opened his presidential campaign in the living room of two of them.

Yup, many were misguided when young. At least they seem to have seen the straight and narrow.

We all tended to be a bit rebellious back in those days. This group just went to the dark side.
