The moratorium to end the war in Vietnam was a massive demonstration and teach-in across the United States against the United States involvement in the Vietnam war. It took place on October 15th, 1969, followed a month later by a large moratorium march on Washington. The moratorium developed from Jerome Grossman's April 20th, 1969 call for a general strike if the war had not concluded by October. David Hawk and Sam Brown, who had previously worked on the unsuccessful 1968 presidential campaign of Eugene McCarthy, changed the concept to a less radical moratorium and began to organize the event as the Vietnam Moratorium Committee with David Mixner, Marge Sklenkar, John Gage, and others.
