The San Marcos 10

In "The San Marcos 10," author E. R. Bills recounts the story of ten Texas State University students who were suspended for staging a peaceful protest against the Vietnam War on November 13, 1969. As they stood vigil with provocative signs during a turbulent anti-protest atmosphere, their actions became part of a nationwide movement that challenged the Nixon administration. Bills explores the students' fight against their suspensions, ultimately leading to a significant case brought before the United States Supreme Court, while providing insight into the antiwar activism and social change of the 1960s in Texas.
