FSM Retrospective: A Student Saga
Call Number: CE 732Format: 1/4 7 1/2 ipsProducers: Colin EdwardsCollection: Colin Edwards Free Speech Movement
This recording is a retrospective documentary on the Free Speech Movement at UC Berkeley in the fall-winter of 1964, narrated by Colin Edwards. Primarily derived from audio and interviews with students, faculty, and UC administrators, this documentary looks at the FSM, specifically the events of Sept. 3rd and 4th and the fallout of the student arrests and police brutality. Among the themes explored include the origins of the movement in civil rights activism, along with the underlying tensions between the students and UC President Clark Kerr’s ideology. Kerr advocated modeling the university as a “multiversity” and a “knowledge factory,” while FSM activists such as Mario Savio believed the “hallmark of the university is inquiry;” ergo there was a tension between a more bureaucratic, business-oriented model and one more democratic and humanistic one is an underlying theme. The role of police in the breakup of the Sproul Hall sit-in, reports of police brutality, and whether police should even be allowed on a university campus, is also explored.
