Abbie Hoffman - Revolution for the Hell of It

This social media account is for educational purposes only. "My name is Abbie Hoffman. I am an orphan of America. I am a cultural revolutionary - a person who tries to shape and participate in the values, and the mores, the customs and the style of living of new people who eventually become inhabitants of a new nation and a new society through art and poetry, theater, and music. We recognize that we are America; we recognize that we are free men. The present-day politicians and their armies of automatons have selfishly robbed us of our birthright. The evilness they stand for will go unchallenged no longer. Political pigs, your days are numbered. We are the second American Revolution. We shall win. Yippie!"

Abbie Hoffman - Woodstock Nation Manuscript

The manuscript show hundreds of changes and corrections in the text made by Hoffman, including several variations of a chapter title, an exorcised pseudonymous author citation ("Agent 12 - Yippie Conspirator"), and evidence of how several of his previously published articles were integrated into the text. The editors' handwritten notations are numerous with corrections throughout, including additions to the end of several chapters, and instructions to the designer for innovative ways to display the text and photo placement. There are also a few additional pages left for a planned promotional poster, a publisher's advertising card, and the list of photo credits.
