Vietnam Vet/Cop describes the weimar like conditions of 1960's San Francisco

JEWS ARE NOT WHITE
Published on Jul 8, 2021
The speaker is David Bowman, a Vietnam veteran and a veteran of the San Francisco police force. He is the author of the book "The Vietnam Experience." He is one of the 180 people interviewed in 1989 representing many different points of view. That was my goal with each interview, to encourage the speaker to tell me/the audience, how he/she experienced the 1960s. David did just that. His Vietnam experience was challenging to say the least. So was his experience as a San Francisco cop assigned to Berkeley and Oakland and other key locations in the bay area, right at the time when street demonstrations, both peaceful and violent, were a daily activity. He saw hippies shortly after the San Francisco Summer of Love brought so many of them to the city. And he saw political activists, both peaceful protesters and those who became violent. I thank David Bowman for giving me his perspective on it all.
