Another brave man who spoke out against a war that should never have been. Funny enough, I was just reading about Joan Baez the other day and if I'm thinking about the same man) I didn't realise that Harris was the man who was locked up when she was performing at Woodstock. She mentioned it on stage.
Respect!
