Protests & Puppets at San Francisco State

Members of San Francisco State College's faculty are seen marching and making an announcement they will be joining the strike. Numerous speakers address crowds with hand held microphones and megaphones. Inflammatory statements are directed toward politicians (including Governor Ronald Reagan) and College President Hayakawa. Students entertain the crowds with giant puppets which are used to enact a political comedy sketch from a platform. There are views of the police presence on 19th Avenue and many more speeches including one by Professor Kay Boyle. Ends with the dispersal of defiant crowds who are chanting: "On strike we'll be back." Contains excellent footage of crowds and passionate (often semi-incoherent) protest speakers.
