Agree 100%. My take on it even back then is that groups who have been stepped on historically finally get to do a little stepping and they get carried away. Youth, anger. Not that big a deal. Disagree with a lot of it, and actually had big issues with it on a personal level when I was in school [example redacted], but it just doesn't register at all on the outrage scale.

Just the piece I linked to. But I bought it and it's in the cue. I'm reading American Eden right now. Who knew Dr. Hosack did so many amazing things? Not me, that's who. That guy got screwed by history.
