Rita Dragonette -- Protesting for Justice, Then and Now

The Black Lives Matter movement reminds some of us of the 1960s when Americans protested the Vietnam War. Author Rita Dragonette spells out some of the parallels between now and the resistance to the Vietnam war. Her award-winning novel, "The Fourteenth of September", is based upon Rita's personal experiences on campus during The Vietnam War. It's a story about the coming of conscience, and it demonstrates how the war had a profound impact on women as well as men. Find out more about Rita on her website at RitaDragonette.com.
