Speech given at DNC about how some African countries won their independence through anger and violence. Black people must speak the language of the captors and recognize that what happens in Mississippi has nationwide impact. There is no difference between Northern and Southern Democrats because they work as a whole not as separate parts. Freedom is not something that is given to you, you must take it and Black people must be equipped to do that in the same way that others have done it in the past. Audio tape is cut off at the end.

President Clark Kerr’s press statement following the Sproul Hall sit-in, denouncing the FSM as “anarchy” (partial recording).

Leggett also discusses right wing presence in Northern California, specifically Oakland Tribune owner William Knowland. Howard Jetter, president, 7th Congressional Democratic Club, San Francisco science teacher and member of the American Federation of Teachers, discusses what he expects to be the devastating effects of campus events on Governor Pat Brown’s career. He also reflects on acting as a legal observer for student protests and witnessing police violence. Hal Draper, university librarian and socialist activist, disagrees with Jetter about Pat Brown, asking “what alterative do they have?” He also discusses right wing presence on campus.
