Description
Scenes from a press conference by Dr Carlton Goodlett in which he announces that Superior Court Judge O'Day has again moved to deny students at SF State College the right to protest with a legal injunction. He expresses concern that: "The police establishment as well as the judiciary is an agent of the political establishment of this state." He introduces a representative of the Community Conference to support the strike who reminds reporters how: "In the student struggle their central issue is institutionalized racism in this society." Goodlett also answers a variety of questions from the press regarding the actions of President S.I. Hayakawa Governor Ronald Reagan and state authorities. Ends with an activist describing events surrounding the recent trouble and arrests at Mission High School as part of his wider role in Operation Motivation.
