Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin were both on the leading edge of protest in the 1960âs. Rubin became an entrepreneur and the chief spokesman for the Baby Boom generation. Hoffman remained active in environmental issues and grass roots politics, maintaining his anti-establishment stance until the end of his life. The 1986 debate featured in this one-hour video was the âfinalâ debate for these two eloquent speakers, following 18 months of touring North America. Though many years had passed since their heyday as counterculture icons, thousands flocked to auditoriums to hear the opinions of Hoffman â idealistic, unrelenting champion for truth and justice â and Rubin â âthe pragmatic voice of the new rightâ.
