Former SDS president Carl Oglesby died of cancer on Tuesday, Sept. 13. Author and scholar Mike Davis, who was also active in SDS and the 60s peace movement, discusses Oglesby’s rare oratorical skills, referring to his “unadorned eloquence and moral clarity,” and the “profound role he played in deepening our commitment to the anti-war movement.”
