The following description comes from the event organizer.

WHAT:  An exhibit that focuses on individual and collective acts of resistance—marches, strikes, arrests, stockade revolts, mutinies and other actions by rank-and-file military personnel and returning veterans—which impaired the ability of the United States government to continue waging war in Viet Nam, thereby helping to bring it to an end.  Related to the exhibit on the UW campus, there will be a rich selection of events.

WHERE:  Exhibit on display at University of Washington, North Allen Lobby in Suzzallo Library, just off Red Square

WHEN:  Exhibit runs from September 28 through October 28, 2022
