They gave me the opportunity to become involved in the civil rights movement,

The extent of Bernie’s involvement in The Civil Rights Movement lasted about one year. By 1964, when college students were putting their lives on the line for Freedom Summer, Bernie retreated to VT where he sat out the ‘60s & ‘70s writing essays & doing carpentry.

So my question is this: What has he done for civil rights in the years since then? Anything specific that we should know about?
