I was seventeen years old, and - add comma
We were scruffy lot - a scruffy lot
I love the description of the local clergy as incendiary as cotton candy :-)
had help tear things up in Chicago - had helped
What do you say, America - add comma for direct address
I put up no struggle. Between - I added the period
Very effective repetition of "I remember 1968"
I remember 1968, also, my friend. This is stunning. I wonder what a revelation it will be to younger members on this site. Brooke :-)

Thank you, Brooke. Especially for the spag alerts. I'm going to have to hire you. The interesting thing is, the younger folks are staying away from this piece in droves. It's hard for me to reconcile that probably half the nation's population didn't see Chicago on the nightly news. Thank you again. Peace, Lee
