Questions about Tom Hayden
1. What did you think of Mr. Hayden?
I thought Mr. Hayden was a really interesting guy because he explained very well what he did in the 60's and why he did it.
2. Tom Hayden does not think of himself as a Civil Rights leader. Do you see him as one? Why or why not?
I do see Tom Hayden as one because he organized people to protests the Vietnam War even when a little bit of people came he didn't give up but kept trying and soon a LOT of people came. He might've not been a civil rights leader helping people with race issues but he helped the crowd get a voice because most of the time the leader does all the talking and the crowds were not acknowledged and he made the crowd get a voice which was a good thing.
3. Tom Hayden feels that leaders are not as important as the hundreds or thousands of people behind them. What does he mean by that?
He means that sometimes the leaders overshadow the people who helped them get to the top and the people who helped them stop what they were opposed to. It's true because the crowds help the people see what most of the people want and if it was just one man not a lot of people would actually listen to what the person wanted. The crowds sometimes are more important than the leaders and it's true because the crowds give the whole state/country a voice.
