It offers a partial record of a community and an institution coming together to accommodate an event while deflecting its potential violence. The history of the New Haven Green bridges over four centuries. It has served as a place for worship, for grazing cattle, staging revolutions, witness to hangings, and various campaigns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the day before and on May Day of 1970, Yale University and New Haven prepared to host an agitated congregation of young civil rights activists with a diverse list of causes, but focused mainly on freeing Bobby Seale, the Black Panther leader. This book gives a glimpse of that diversity; diverse in cause, attitude, and dress. Marked changes in mood evolved over the approximate 32 hours. Yale and New Haven could be proud of avoiding real violence and blood shed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike an archeological record, it exhibits not only the New Haven Green on that one day, but marks a broader shift in direction for a county at large. For those who were there, it seems painfully near. For later generations, it is likely a remote abstraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Henry Sam Chauncey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1632260662\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781632260666\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Prospecta Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/22\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 10.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Henry Sam Chauncey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995131609343,"sku":"9781632260666","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f7639deb-2982-4e01-ad70-fb303b5f8981.jpg?v=1683334014","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/may-day-at-yale1970-henry-sam-chauncey-9781632260666","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
