SUMMARY:Power to the People: Activism in the 1970s
DESCRIPTION:The Civil Rights marches of the 1950s and early 1960s and the anti-war protests of the late 1960s and early 1970s may have been more dramatic\, but a quieter kind of citizen activism in the Linden Hills neighborhood during the 1970s caused residents to band together to make their voices heard by city and county governments.   \nA panel of local residents\, led by Linda Lounsbury\, will talk about how they “fought City Hall” and how they won or lost their causes.  \n\nCarol Vaubel\, one of the founders of the Linden Hills Neighborhood Council\, organized meetings to get residents involved in changes to parks and streets.\nMike Miller\, a past PTA president\, advocated saving the Lake Harriet School.\nDon Hawkinson\, a local business owner\, was president of the Linden Hills Business Association and active in other causes.\nTom Neiman\, founder of the Southwest Community Education Program\, grew up in a family that initiated numerous activities and organizations to improve their community.\n\nTheir commitment to community participation and causes helped make Linden Hills what it is today.
