Two Photographs from 1969 Demonstration

Description

These uncaptioned images accompanied an article in the May 1969 issue of Action, the monthly newspaper of the United Federation of College Teachers. Clearly representing a range of organizations and political positions, the focus of this demonstration was generally one that supported public education. Signs from SDS (Students for a Democratic Society) read "Tax the Rich" and "Student Power. " And AFT (American Federation of Teachers) signs read "AFT: Save Education" and "AFT Position, End Tuition." Others say: "Support your local college," "No Fees Please" "No Tuition No Cuts - Free Education" and "Share the Cost of Public Education - don't Ask me to Bear it all."
