Discusses his memoir "Resister: A Story of Protest and Prison During the Vietnam War"

 Dancis attended Cornell University for a number of years in the 1960’s and was
president of Cornell’s Students For a Democratic Society (SDS). He was a well-known anti-
Viet Nam war activist, draft resister and organizer. He was one of the firs
t CU students to tear up his
Selective Service draft card publicly. He spent 19 months in federal prison for his actions.
He wrote a fascinating book about his experiences, which we will focus on in this of this interview.
It’s called Resister: A Story of Protest and Prison During the Viet Nam War.
