The 1960s and early ’70s were a tumultuous period of activism and experimentation in Vancouver. In this richly illustrated presentation, author-artist Michael Kluckner describes the Georgia Straight’s battles with the Mayor, the freeway fight, antiwar and pro-drug demonstrations, the rise of the environmental movement, and the campaigns and programs that left a lasting legacy, including co-op housing and neighbourhood preservation.
