My partner and I stood in line outside (the now departed) St. Vincent’s Hospital with dozens of others hoping to give blood. None was needed; there were few survivors.

In the days following the attack, the Voice sent reporters out to document the human stories behind the faces printed on the “missing” flyers that became ubiquitous around the city: Xeroxes and print-outs of photos, some sharply focused, others blurry or pixelated, all poignant and finally tragic — hardly any of them ever came home.

“You may never have taken LSD,” Amherst professor Nick Bromell once observed, “but America has.” Power to the People concludes with stirring graphics from the Chicago Seed that reinforce this ’60s spirit.

This review from the Village Voice archive looks at the powerful graphics and unrestrained rhetoric of the 1960s underground press.

Americans stung by the “insensitivity” of Ronald Reagan’s decision to lay a wreath at the Kolmeshöhe cemetery, in Bitburg, wonder why their president agreed to rehabilitate the N**i war criminals of the Waffen-SS. But Bitburg is hardly the first or even necessarily the most egregious example of the Reagan administration’s strange attitude toward N**ism and its postwar manifestations, as two startling examples demonstrate.
