Madison in the Sixties: The Mifflin Street Block Party Riots, part 1
On April 29, 1969, an anonymous group calling itself the International Were Wolf Conspiracy posts flyers downtown advertising a party that Saturday in the 500 block of West Mifflin St. The illustration is of a man with a bandolero, with a call for “armed love” and to “off the pig.” The Mifflanders don’t care that they don’t have a permit; lots of neighborhoods throw block parties without official sanction. Cops had even diverted traffic for a no-permit party on West Gilman Street just the week prior. [i]
But they’re not going to be so nice to the neighborhood radical leader Tom Hayden called one of America’s “liberated zones.” So Police Chief Wilbur Emery schedules extra men for Saturday afternoon, and arranges with Sheriff Vernon “Jack” Leslie for a hundred deputy sheriffs to be on standby.

Madison, February 1969 - The Black Studies Strike Ends in Victory

Some shout down Professor George Mosse as he attempts to lecture on European cultural history, but Mosse takes a historian’s view of the incident and is nonplussed. Late in the day, the Black People’s Alliance, WSA, and Third World Liberation Front issue a statement calling on students to return to class and engage their professors and classmates on the underlying issues.[i]
On Tuesday, BPA leader Willie Edwards tells a small rally of about 150 that the strike is officially suspended. Over the seven weekdays of the strike, attendance in classes on and around Bascom Hill has been off by about 10 percent, while the western campus generally had full attendance. That afternoon, about half the guardsmen are sent home, with the rest to follow on Thursday.[ii] ....
