And convention at the coliseum. They take the major credit for the mob actions, takeovers on college and University Campuses throughout the nation. This is the revolutionary conference for a front against socalled fascism. Bringing together students for a socalled democratic society. The black panthers and other working classes at the Oakland California auditorium july 18 through the 20th 1969. The underlining purpose of the meeting was to further emphasis on exploiting to advance communism. He said youth will decide the entire struggle. The next voices exposed the nature of the conference and are represented to the black panthers, young patriots, and the communist party who were featured on the program. The synchronized film was not obtainable for this program. This is important to americans is society. They are identified later in the film. Representing the black panthers ellipsis. Notified capitalism with socialistic programs. Imperialism. Need a understanding of the principles so we can put our knowledge into revolutionary factors. And this is revolutionary on the side of the people. Solitary and socialism. Representing the black panthers. The redbook is my bible, the gun is my staff. Representing sds. Our program will come back on the campus this fall and hit them harder than they have ever been hit before. It will defeat United States imperialism. It will be an International Struggle. Its going to be a struggle that will take place in the third world against imperialism. We must see how the final struggle will be raised. Students must be open to the working class and must go to the community to be part of this. Representing the communist party usa. We want one who seeks to destroy the struggles of the peoples and to contain rollback socialism. Is the disbanding of all overseas bases and and to the draft, the return of u. S. Soldiers. The withdrawal of vietnam. The foreign farm policy that blockade south africa. It encourages the revolutionary republic of cuba. Yes, they are communists. Its the overthrow of the democratic system. Our nation seems unbelieving. Many newspapers, Television Commentators and educators call these revolutionaries dissidents. A problem they say assembling one of the unrested. This is the true nature and the true magnitude of those forces linked to world communism that are working with in our nation for the overthrow. We do not challenge freedom of dissent on College Campuses or anywhere in america. We acknowledge the existence and universities of broad areas for improvement. We support efforts towards changes affecting the future of American Youth. This documentary is devoted to an unrelated movement for change. If movement of revolution which declares its purpose to be the description of our American Educational system. Than the economic system, and finally our system of government. Lets them tell it like it is in this film communists on campus. This is mark, this is the convention at the coliseum. This is mark at Columbia University of new york city. He had the chapter at columbia after returning from a three week tour where he visited. They usually have classes. We have had mass meetings of 800 and 600 people respectively. What do you think will be the outcome . Do you think youll get all of the demands . Is anything negotiable here . We think we will win the demands. We are in a very strong position. This is a very strong position. We think that we will win our demands. They held at any time. We have the group behind us. This is a number of demands. About the Community Issues and our demands about the analysis that involves issues worldwide issues. And the question of support for americans for the United States foreign policy. He later admitted his demands at columbia were a hoax and a pretext. We manufactured the issues. The analysis is nothing at columbia. The main issue doesnt mean anything to anybody. Is a really interested in columbia . Are you concerned with something much bigger than columbia . Say that neither is true. What it is is a Training Ground or one that has immediate relevance. According to the leader, it was a training exercise, and the goal that was a takeover of the United States. According to a report, at the height of the student rebellion , a leader was approached who objected the reported plans against the police. They were told very clearly that you liberals dont understand what the scene is all about. It is about power and disruption. This was the president of columbia of university. You call for order and respect for authority. We call for socialism. They paralyze the university. They found one of the leaders of the coordinating committees that agitated all over america. The students of Columbia University or through the black community and were there for 56 hours. They will stay here until the university is willing to talk on behalf of it. We are going in the community to support it we will let columbia know that if they dont want to deal with them they will deal with the brothers on the street. It was parents weekend cornell. They stand straight hall in the heart of the campus. Some movein and got evicted when black students decided to occupy the hall. The blacks were demanding the usual things. Their demands were met and they came out. It was everyone that realized the students were armed. They try to take the guns away. Is not sure who one, but the students do not lose. To return to the revolutionary conference we hear the cofounder of the front against fascism. He was also independent in the conspiracy trial until given a gel sentenced. We are going to create, and we are going to put together the very near future a liberation front. He wants to set up a liberation front with the National Liberation front. With the communist, they have murdered or named hundreds of thousands of civilians and over 300,000 american soldiers trying to help communists. This exposes 200,000 bodies. Many of the victims were found and executed while somewhere buried alive. Some managed to escape. Some soldiers dug their own graves. We were led by the communist party. Weve been accused of that quite a bit. Bobby didnt reply that they are part of the communist. The information is a top voice of the black panthers speaking from the algerias. He set the record straight. We are a party that is through internationalism. David added, socialism must be the goal of the revolutionaries who seek to destroy the american system. There is many communists featured. One of them was the strategists. I appreciate the honor of speaking here this evening. The honor is multiplied since jay has announced this meetings initiator the black Panther Party has the greatest threat to the internal security of the country. If huber can them something, it must be good. If he can them something in terms of great severity that it must be very good. To be attacked by the chief of america is a tribute. May the black Panther Party in the future continue to merit the dire tribes of his foul mouth. At the university of california in the fall of 1964 they organized and was one of the leaders of the Free Speech Movement. The beginning of the disruption for the communist of the emphasis. She has the student revolution. This is the erosion of democratic environment and establishment of leadership in the United States. She has herself posted, we will if necessary take over the College Campuses in this country. If our demands are not met. The Free Speech Movement was through other campuses on a wellplanned and well finance speaking to her. Here at their arrival they were met. The tour was arranged by students through democratic society. Is is a specific problem in your school . I think this is a site of all the campuses. He declared that weve got the boys clubs, a nonviolent Committee Going for us. He could include the black Panther Party and a dozen so others. On december 28 come at the university of chicago this student Peace Program committee made up of students and faculty made an appeal for a nationwide student faculty strike. The House Committee reported the proposal for the nationwide student strike was completely communist. The aim of the dominant elements in this movement is to undermined the United States and promote the takeover. And the general advance of world communism. One of the principal speakers of the conference and the initiator of the idea for a nationwide student faculty staff and the author of this big business an american group. This consists of organizations. The include the Natural Association and coordinating committee. The socialist alliance. The Peace Council with the counsel. It will define people to it. I would say the purpose is to discuss the possibility as a coordinated spring against the war. Its an issue of the university participation. For example this is research on the campuses. The purpose of the conference will be discussed. You just heard communist dictate the issues in 1966. Which to this day are being used by the communists to rally militants to accelerate their drive for the overthrow of our country. We have a message to all of the people. The messages this. Right on. The convicted felon, a fugitive from the penitentiary. Hes one of the popular leaders of the revolutionary. In the pages of the black Panther Party newspaper, he speaks out to comrades in the u. S. A message from his hideout in communist cuba at another time. He emphasizes the importance of destruction on the college campus. He writes and i quote the most sensational and exclusive are being focused on College Campuses and high school campuses. We must destroy their institutions from which they derive their power. We have to destroy the present structure of power in the United States. We have to overthrow the government and the only means possible is violent overthrow. This is the voice of the black panthers repeating the communist party line giving the words to the actions of todays storm troopers. Another communist was in the spotlight again. Rt brown. One of the educators who led the student riots against the House Committee investigating communist activities in the San Francisco bay area in 1960. The first major exercise of the misuse of student power by communist in the 60s. It is the majority and it is going to win. Is going to lead the way to take over the government and make it a government for the workers and the people. It is even more so because the emphasis is on the working people who are going to make the change together with everybody else when the change is going to be made. One of the propositions was that anybody who was a communist which i was and am, i think we can help when the working class and the programs for fascism and progress in socialism in this country. Thank you. You have just heard admitted communist archie brown calling for progress and socialism in this country. What he really is calling for is regressing and repressing totalitarianism as practiced by communism forever in power in the world today. The next speaker, the new interorganizational secretary of sds, jeff jones, announces sds policy. The subpoena of sds, it waits on the campuses when it is waged slowly on the campuses is a fight that can end up only on the campuses. That is not where we are at at all. That is not where we as an organization, a young, revolutionary our signed to move the Student Movement are trying to link it up with the workingclass movement as the primary key with which we are trying to build our movement. Organizations like the plantar party Panther Party and organizations in this country. In chicago last year confrontation was structure around the war with the democratic convention. Now there are eight revolutionaries on trial for organizing that demonstration. They are trying to repress us and slow us down. That is the time for us to go back even harder. Stronger than we were last summer. October 11 to give everyone a chance to organize the summer and to reach workingclass young people to get them to come to chicago and fight. It is an International Struggle to pull students is off the campus and around demands like free all political prisoners, u. S. Occupation troops out of vietnam, the black and brown communities and off of schools. We must wage those demands in the tradition of the San Francisco state struggle. More trouble erected at San Francisco State College as a result of suspension of a teacher, george mason murray, a member of the black panthers. This is a film from Cuban National television. You see here george mason murray, the translation reads we believe that guerrilla warfare is the correct form of struggle for the north american population. We think people have been oppressed and colonized by imperialism and fascism and they have the right to get into those institutions. I doing that it will change the institutions and eventually will lead to shutting down those institutions until we destroy capitalism. Tonight women combating fascism. Here they are. Introduced marie walker johnson. Hereto for women have been thought of as merely being content to remain in a prone position. Well, things arent what they used to be. Sisters and brothers, the people who will be speaking on this panel have not been chosen because of their rhetoric. They were chosen because of their correct practice. None other than our sister roberta alexander. Newton says that we have to limit our bickering as much as possible between the movement and make our concentration upon the enemy. This is correct. My sisters are struggling and participating in political education classes and more and more are taking a leadership role. We are sisters that show we can shoot as well as brothers. They are not sitting home with the baby. They are out there. Have their babies with them. They are in the community out there doing fieldwork. It even goes down to a sexual level whether or not the women are supposed to do so and so are the causes of revolution etc. Sisters of the black Panther Party, and i hope the sisters of the rest of the movement of the rest of the united front against fascism follow the example of the vietnamese women. Also power to the people. Right on. The revolutionaries cry all power to the people. What the people want the people will take. The people they refer to are themselves, the conspiracy and the revolutionary, the tiniest minority in our country. Sister roberta, another beautiful sister, her name sister carol henry. The lines of demarcation have been drawn between the press and the people. These are children participating in the Free Breakfast Program sponsored by the black Panther Party. These are pages from the notorious black panther coloring book was handed out to children attending a Free Breakfast Program in a church in San Francisco. This coloring book was dramatically exposed to the u. S. Senate mcclellan investigating committee. A coloring book teaches young to hate and kill policeman and insights them toward violence and murder. Every difficulty defense victory. I must remind you there cannot be a successful struggle against fascism unless the broad masses of women are drawn into it. Down with the fascist pig. Long live the people in racist struggle. Long live huey p newton. All power to the people. There to struggle, there to win. All power to the people. All power to the people. Right on. Dictionaries tell us about communism and fascism both totalitarian systems have an officially prescribed all embracing ideology which has an answer for everything. A correct attitude toward every aspect of human existence. The ideology, the bible of the black panthers and most of the left revolutionaries is prescribed in our ever present Little Red Book entitled quotations from chairman mao tse tung. I would like to introduce to you sister ora williams. Chairman mao says that a revolutionary should have staunch and an active mind. Looking upon the revolution as its very life and coordinating his personal interest with those of the revolution. Always and everywhere. The principles and ways are tireless struggles against all ideas and actions. We should be more concerned about the party and the masses than about any individuals be at mother, wife, or child. And more concerned about others than himself. Only then can he be considered a true revolutionary. We have a fiveweekold daughter who has been instilled with revolutionary principles. This was inborn in her from revolutionary parents who practice in a revolutionary environment. She was born a revolutionary and will die one. The first of a new generation whose minds will not be conditioned, victory to the people, victory is ours. All power to the people. Sister dixon, doctor of sociology ucla. The radical Womens Liberation Movement was created by an International Revolutionary movement. As a very great woman fascinated by the German Government is a dangerous revolutionary. One said the history of revolutionary struggle is the history of failure but you only need to win once and we shall. All power to the people. I have a telegram i would like to read to you from the tokyo communist league. Dated july 19, 1969. Communist league sends a strong solidarity on behalf of japanese militants, revolutionary workers and students. We must together establish our dictatorship to combat and destroy fascism, imperialism. Our struggles should be a violent one to resist and destroy the violence of establishment power. The brown nations must form a practical link with the struggle of liberation in the third world eventually to win in the struggles for world revolution. The next speaker from the black Panther Party, marshall. Huey p newton says the racist dog police Must Withdraw from the community or face the wrath of the armed people. The black Panther Party has a motto, it is a quote by chairman mao zedong of the Chinese Communist party. We are the advocates of the abolition of war. We do not want war. But war can only be abolished through war. In order to get rid of the guns , it is necessary to pick up the guns. Power to the people. They know where political power comes from. Are you going to arrest him . Go ahead. Go ahead. All right. The black panthers and other revolutionaries referred to members of the National Lawyers guild as revolutionary lawyers. William shown here is a member of the National Lawyers guild reported by the House Committee on unamerican activities to be made up of communist front lawyers. He was one of the attorneys for the chicago eight charged with conspiring to incite riots in chicago during the 1968 Democratic National convention. He was also defending the new york 21, a group of black panthers indicted on charges of conspiring to blow up a number of public buildings. Let us now listen to attorney as he seems to be inciting the black community to revolutionary violence. If you will remember during the rebellions in plainfield, new jersey some 40 grand m1 rifles were found missing from the armory. The governor of new jersey, richard, ordered the police to search every home in the central homes of plainfield, the black ghetto of plainfield to find those missing rifles. I am happy to say that not a single gun was found. There has not been a white policeman in the central words of plainfield since july 1967. Now the other episode in plainfield which made it certain that this would be so occurred some weeks after the theft of the guns. One white policeman by the name of john gleason moved into the central ward of plainfield on a saturday afternoon. He marched down a street leading under a Railroad Underpass and then he shot a black man by the name of Bobby Lee Williams through the stomach. Bobby lee williams fell to the ground at the intersection in the Railroad Underpass. Gleason began to retreat out of the ghetto. He was followed by a crowd of black men and women and they blocked half of the intersection. He was stoned to death. In my opinion, he deserved that death. You must stand ready to defend yourselves and if you are ready, i hope that you wont have to but dont shrink if you have to. It is almost worse to be ready and able to defend yourself and to freeze on the trigger when the time comes. Because then you will have told the power structure that they need not fear you. The black Panther Party as you all know is named the black Panther Party for selfdefense. Power to the people. We always say an old saying that the best defense is a good offense, there is no need for it in the name of the black Panther Party. You just heard ray hewitt, the black panther minister of education directly contradict the use of the word for self defense in the name the black panthers give themselves. According to the plainfield new Jersey Police department, all the statements he made were false. The incident detailed happened on a sunday afternoon july 16, 1967, not saturday afternoon as he stated. The rifles referred to were not taken from an armory nor were they grand m1 rifles. The rifles, 30 caliber carbines were stolen from a manufacturing plant. The governor of new jersey did not order the police to search for the guns. Contrary to what he would have you believe, some of the guns were found. Routine patrols which include white policeman have continued to operate in all the words of plainfield, the shooting incident notwithstanding. And it occurred during the riding on the same day as the theft of the guns, not weeks later as he said. When he made his statement of the revolutionary conference there was no legal proof that officer john gleason shot Bobby Lee Williams. Two of the 12 blacks indicted for the murder of officer gleason were found to guilty and sentenced to life in prison. In an effort to create a stronger bond between students and workers, a panel of rank andfile Union Activists were featured on the revolutionary conference program. The next speaker will be noel who is an International Harvester worker, a member of uaw chicago. It is our opinion, the opinion of myself and those of us in the shop that it is no more possible to bring in a militant threat of rankand file leadership manages possible to seize state power by peaceful and legal means. Kenny was a director of the black panther caucus in Fremont California and he is also a very active brother of the black Panther Party. What i want to say at this time is that the lifeand death struggle with reformism will begin. It has begun. How the struggle will end with the panel, how completely the masses shaped free of the present leadership and put up militant resistance. Fascism will be our punishment tomorrow if we let past the hour of socialism, thank you. Clearly no reform or progress within the american system is sought. The goal is total socialism communism. The next speaker will be barbara bacon from the revolutionary party of richmond california. Vietnam was the spearhead and imperialism is being driven into the corner that is on the defensive and the decline and on the way out. We have to understand that the proletarian forces like the black Panther Party already are taking the lead and forming a united front which will overthrow the imperial system. Other forces that we work with have action around the war and to force the imperials out. One of the key components must be workingclass organizations and actions against the war in vietnam. We have to get those along and stop scabbing on the vietnamese people. Have you ever asked yourself why we had increasing trouble with discipline in our own forces . Listen closely to the chairman of the american servicemans union and you will understand. Okay, im going to run down some stuff tonight about the g. I. Revolt and rebellions that have been going on in the u. S. Army over the last year. The organizing drive that we are undertaking but before i do that, i have something really important here. Korean people have asked the american servicemans union to send their greetings to the revolutionary young people in america. And they sent us a letter which im going to read. Dear andy, our thinking is that the asu and the peoples korea will combine efforts and chopping the head off u. S. Imperialism. We will combine efforts in chopping the head off u. S. Imperialism and tearing at lynns limbs in the world over and mutilating the u. S. Circle, fully supporting the asu. You will readily agree with us in this respect i believe. The democratic peoples republic of korea is the banner of freedom and independence of our people and also a powerful weapon of building socialism and communism. Your contributions will greatly encourage the Korean People in their struggle to achieve an independent peaceful unification of the fatherland accomplishing the complete victory of socialism and communism. The asu is playing a leading role in this fight in this organizing drive. We have chapters of the american servicemans union on 16 large military installations in the United States and 40 overseas. Just as the Bolshevik Party organized through the soviets in 1917 against a those are and the oppression in russia. The american servicemans union is organizing soviet within the u. S. Imperialist army. The only line that will lead to victory, the only line that will lead to victory and revolution is a proletarian line in the army. And they know that whoever can command the allegiance of the rankandfile troops, that command will be decisive in counterrevolution. Right now the american servicemans union is building an army within an army, a workers militia inside the u. S. Army and along with the panthers and others we will make that revolution. Power to the people. We are going to wind this session up tonight with National Committees plural to combat fascism. Minnie wants to talk about how we can create the new party. The new mass peoples party, the new Workers Party or however you want to phrase it. Yes, we should create a party, the black Panther Party says yes. You are downright we need to parallel an old American Liberation front and that needs to be done. We are saying we have guns to deal with fascism but lets start with the control of the police. If you dont want to deal with the guns then start dealing with the Community Control of the police. The definitive pillars of the prisoner, power to the people. On september 5, 1969 angela davis after being hired as a philosophy professor at ucla first admitted she was a member of the communist party usa. I think that the real reason they are hiring me is not only because of my membership in the communist party but because i have tried to involve myself as much as i could in the black liberation struggle in this country. I worked with the black panthers and with the dsu when i was a student down at the University Campus at san diego. I think we have enough on campuses. The woman is an admitted member of the communist party. She also in her letter to chancellor young indicated that she felt that the only way we can bring about the social change that is necessary today is through violence. I dont think we need that on campus. The vice chairman of the black Students Union of ucla admitted many black leaders to home black people look at symbols have been connected directly or indirectly with the communist party. The ucla figure most instrumental in highlighting ms. Davis was the chairman of uclas philosophy department. Since 1965 he was extremely active in the antivietnam war movement, antipolice activities and a variety of other causes agitated by the communist. The professor has bully declared many of the people declared they belong to that branch of the communist party and progressive labor and i am part of the leftist communist party. What kind of civilization is being offered by communist and other leftist. Would it be better than that which we now have . This is a vitally important question. Millions of American Youth are being courted and beckoned, agitated and incited to take violent actions against the american system. To throw it all overboard but for what . What is to be the replacement . The best the revolutionaries can point to are the china of mel say done from North Vietnam andchi minh, the soviet union of lenin. One of these totalitarian dictatorships brought to their people . Have they brought the promise democratic freedom and the economic paradise for workers . They have not. Instead they have established dictatorships over the proletarian, the working people rather than of the proletarian. In the highest developed communist country, the soviet union Living Standards are about one fourth of the american standard. The new left revolutionaries have accused you, the people of the United States of being fascist. By dictionary definition fascist subscribes to a highly centralized system of government which exercises absolute control over its people. Imposing strict censorship and suppressing all opposition. Is this a picture of the United States or of red china, North Vietnam, cuba and the soviet union and its satellite. The fascist we have to fear and unite against our sds, black panthers and all communists who demand a totalitarian system. There is very little difference between communism and fascism. They are both totalitarian systems which share an officially prescribed all embracing ideology which has a supposed answer for everything , a correct attitude toward every aspect of human existence. Those who will be speaking on this panel are chairs of the correct practice. Armed with correct theory and practice. The redbook is my bible. Chairman mao says he can adhere to principles and ways that are tireless struggles against all ideas and action. As communist mao tse tung says the black Panther Party has a motto. There is a quote of chairman mao tse tung of the communist party. The communist accused the United States of imperialism. The truth is that since 1939 communist imperialism has put under his rule nearly 1 billion people and about a third of the world land area. A basic leninist concept for the victim of communism aims at world conquest and nothing left. Through propaganda, infiltration and subversion, revolution, civil strike and aggressive warfare. The young revolutionaries want to destroy our educational system but they dont tell us that in communist countries the state dictates and directs the education of its youth according to what it believes are the needs of the state. There is no such thing as special privilege for the education of minority groups and many black students brought to the soviet union from africa have gripped and returned to their homes and discussed because of the discrimination practiced against them. At this 15th congress of the Young Communist League of the soviet union held in the moscow kremlin, they complement the young people who are now putting their heart and soul into the work of implementing the decisions of the communist partys 23rd congress. They are being congratulated for implementing the decisions of the communist dictatorship. The aim of communist education is not the mind free of ignorance and prejudice but the state directed conformist who does exactly what he is told. The purpose of communist education is the allpowerful state whereas the goal of Democratic Education is the free man. And who is the state in communist countries . About a dozen communist and a selfappointed hierarchy. In red china, the state is not they dont. In North Vietnam the state was chi minh. In cuba the state is fidel castro. All total dictatorships over the people. No person who is truly dedicated to freedom, liberty, and the concept of democratic government who opposes tierney and totalitarianism and at the same time is truly informed about the nature and the record of communism joins in communist land or communist front operations. No group should be allowed to plunder, riot and terrorize our educational institutions and impose its will upon a majority of students who go to college to study and learn. Will it take a National Disaster of monumental proportions before the public wakes up to the enemy within now operating with impunity . Must a free society allow itself to be destroyed because of the very freedoms it defends . For the students of this land, and for all of us, understanding and finding ways to expose, neutralize and overcome the communist threat is not a political issue, it is a matter of national survival.
