The article discusses the Labor Day reunion at Ann Arbor in Michigan. The Labor Day reunion revealed that the activists have not abandoned their politics. The depth and diversity of their continuing political commitment came as an exalting surprise. Ann Arbor, Michigan in the 1960s was the home of the first draft board sit-in, the first anti-Vietnam War teach-in and the birthplace of "Students for a Democratic Society." At the reunion it was evident that many veteran activists have adapted their politics to a more sedate life and the needs of their own communities.
