Review of The Camden 28 (2007) by Don K — 05 Mar 2011
MmmmKay..I thought I reviewed this once, but this app is so clunky, it apparently didn't take. A surprisingly good documentary, given I only stumbled on it at the library today. It recalls one of the many anti-Vietnam war protests of the 60's and early 70's, where protesters broke into draft board offices and either burned or destroyed records.
In this case in Camden, NJ, the protesters, largely left wing Catholics, were betrayed by one of their own, only to see the Nixon administration and Hoover Justice Dept. screw up the case. This had to be one of J.
Edgar Hoover's last big investigations before he went to that big drag bar in the sky. He never lived to see the unusual trial and verdict.
