Glen Gendzel

Professor of American History at San Jose State University in California, Glen Gendzel is uniquely qualified to contribute to our commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the momentous events of 1968. In the USA, opposition to the continued American involvement in the Vietnam War was at its most intense that year. Dr Gendzel will explore lingering political and military myths that Americans still cherish about that war, including the Tet Offensive of 1968, and repercussions on the home front.
