So lame that most of you were NOT brought here by the original much better band that used this first. I suggest you all go and listen to the band Cog now. Forget Linkin Park. They are copy cats.
I have the Berkley in the Sixties video at home. These are great memories for me at the time I lived and went to school in San Francisco. I heard Mario's speech later and was part of the students' movement but I was too young, was still in high school.
I'm going to end this Good Riddance vs. Linkin Park debate right now....
Both bands are shitty alt rock bullshit targeted at angsty teens, that being said they don't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath as this speech because of it's historical significance. Much less "thanks" for using it to fill a few seconds on their shitty music.

What does he really mean with the speech? That we, the people, aren't any slaves for the goverment and the companies, who's claim, that they own us as there own? Is that kind of what he means? That we can't be bought, we are all human beings, and therefore has the right to act like one and claim our rights in this society we're a part of. Is that purpouse of his speech???
"That doesn't mean that you have to break anything. One thousand people sitting down some place, not letting anybody by, not [letting] anything happen, can stop any machine, including this machine! And it will stop!"
Ahh, so you dont care about freedom of speech? Cause thats what this speech was about. A person was arrested for HANDING OUT PAPERS. If thats not odious and reprehensible to you, then you are anti-free thought, anti-intellectual freedom, and against the principles in the 1st Amendment.
Again, thanks for doing your research, just like fox, rush, glenn and hannity.
Rebels without a clue.... seems you're the one who hasn't a clue. And you cant buy one from wal-mart. Sorry.
@sakar181 Um... I didn't say I don't care about freedom of speech, did I? Have you been arrested for HANDING OUT PAPERS? Um, no.
Freedom of speech is about saying something meaningful, not about parking yourself in a public place and brooding. Say something other than the obvious, praying that somehow you'll get to be a martyr out of all of this hoopla.
Since when is OWS not saying something meaningful? They are talking about the demonstrable and ignored inequality inherent in the system. They are talking about the poor, the hungry, the homeless, and the disenfranchised. They are pointing to REAL flwas in the system that the corporate media would rather you ignore. They are shedding light on the police state.
And dont BS me with 'why sleep there?' Hoovervilles & the Bonus Army are historical precedent.
@sakar181 Inequality is inherint in any system. What system does your particular group of people who sleep in a park under the banner of "OWS" espouse? Name the system of all things equal.
The problem is the vast, yawning chasm of inequality, only matched in the year before the great depression. THATS part of the problem. And you ignored my question.
Whats wrong with exposing this massive inequality thats protected by the 1% and their drones like you? Whats wrong with feeding the hungry, many of whom are children? Whats wrong with saying that the system is rigged?
Nothing. Because its the truth.
And your question exemplifies your ignorance of OWS.
@sakar181 Um... sakar... you accused me of not answering your question... but it is YOU who have avoided the question... THE question... if "the system" is what the problem is, once you've annoyed it to death, with what do you intend to replace it?
Oh wait, you haven't thought that far in advance... your agenda is just to whine until you are martyred...
Your ignorance of OWS is again evident. The movement isn't about saying that we need 'these exact reforms'. You would know this if you had taken the time to do your own research. Whats wrong with standing up and saying 'the system is royally fucked, and Im here to say that'? Many occupiers feel that the system is beyond repair. Others not. It's a long, ongoing process. Just because AFP had the teabaggers demands in concrete doesnt mean everyone should follow that model.
@sakar181 sakar, you are just a sucker for those exploiting you. You claim that all you are about is saying that the system contains inequalities (duh), but you are listening to a speech about rampant vandalism in order to destroy the [American] system... so if you are participating in a movement to destroy the US, with what will it be replaced? Islam? Socialism? Anarchy?
Don't try to villfy me by identify me with other groups your group characterizes as idiots.

I AM LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO WITNESSED THIS SPEECH IN PERSON!!!
I am making a documentary that compares the current Occupy Movement with the Free Speech movement in the 1960's. Is there anyone here who listend to Mario give this speech or any speech and that LIVES IN THE BAY AREA, California???
Please Personal message me or reply to this comment!!! Please thumbs this up so everyone can see this message! thank you!
I was there and watched that speech.. I was a law student at Boalt Hall thinking only about school. After that speech, I left my law school buddies and sat in that night in Sproul Hall. The rest of my law school days I was a very active radical working for Civil Rights. I cry every time I hear that speech. If you post your email address I will get in touch. I live in Marin county
@ThePistolero909 I finished my documentary short. I turned out that Mario's speech wasn't a big part of the movie, yet it is still included. You can see it on my channel under: Our Occupation.
12/02/1964 was a grateful day I agree with mario slavo we are human beings not consumers or people time to kill the machine of money nothing to big to fail WE WILL KILL THE MACHINE.

this speech needs to be made again, LOUDER. why are we putting up with police brutality against FREE SPEECH? we are the 99! we outnumber those idiots 99 to 1!
I applaud the speech. I applaud the use of the speech by any band, cartoon, video, movie, or whatever. I look forward to the use of this speech in 2011, and have no doubt it will be current in 3011 when the notion of a park is either prevalent or a historical reference to a place where trees once stood. Perhaps it will be remembered as the first "Occupy Berkeley" speech. See the "Mario Savio Memorial Lecture Fund" site for more on Mario.
I never heard of this before and i'm very happy LINKIN PARK put this in one of their songs. I know LINKIN PARK doesn't gets the credit in this amazing spech, but still, without them probably i would never have heard of Mario and what they did was just help spread the message with such and amazing song... I take my hat off to Mario AND Linkin Park.
@I2EF Linkin Park sucks. Fear Factory sampled it first as far as I know and btw, Linkin Park sucks. I think Savio would write a speech about how shitty Linkin Park is if he was alive. Too bad he isn't. Maybe Fear Factory will, I can still dream, right? Did I mention Linkin Park blows goats and I have proof?
@LeCauchemar1 First of all, it's your opinion dude, not a fact. 2nd i know Fear Factory sampled it first, but still, they don't get the credits, plus i'm not a fan of FF (never heard of them before) so if LP haven't put this in one of their songs i probably never have been here. 3rd We already know how much you hate LP, anyways, all you said it's an opinion; LeCauchemar1, you don't have proofs of anything. Peace.
@I2EF that was the worst end to a youtube arguement ever ha. Fear Facorty rocks, Linkin park well... I can dig them. But I will say on a different note music is a universal language, without that sample most of the people on here would never hear the message etc etc
@voltairevillain Neither Linkin Park or that other band did the speech, all the credit goes to Mario, but by your logic "Good Riddance" ripped it off from Mario. Also I'm fan of Linkin Park not "Good Riddance" that's why i thank Linkin Park.
@I2EF It was also sampled by Fear Factory, paraphrased in Battlestar Galactica and probably a bunch of other places too, for me its one of the defining speeches of the 20th century powerful stuff.
@jointaktion I'll have to copy and paste what i said before because i'm sick of this: Neither Linkin Park or that other band did the speech, all the credit goes to Mario. Also I'm fan of Linkin Park not "Good Riddance" that's why i thank Linkin Park. So your point is meaningless.
A great speech. And for all the Linkin Park leg humpers, Fear Factory used this speech back in 1998 on the Obsolete album in the song, 'Timelessness.'

This is actually pathetic. Suddenly, millions of teenagers desire to "rage against the machine" simply, because Linkin Park included Savio's speech in their "Wretches & Kings". They are completely unaware of the context this came from. Savio's "bodies upon the gears" was actually acting as a catalyst for the "Free Speech Movement" (i.e., civil rights). Not some type of flippant compulsion to defy authority. And so, the majority allow the media to choose their political views for them.
@Hyperactiveroxerchic I totally understand what you are saying but from the way i look at it is that it is a start for the younger generation to open there eye's and see the world as it is and not what they where told it was. My oldest son was woke up by " Ministry" end of days part 2 so music is a powerful tool. I guess a saying comes to mind" There is a bit of truth to all the BS"
FFS, Linkin' Park is not even a good band; for all their promotion and artificial hype in the early 2000s what legacy did they leave in Rock? Who did they influence? Nobody, absolutely no one worthy of mention. So stop bringing up them instead of serious issues!

people.... yes most people look up this song because of linkin park but still. there is no reason to be mad. linkin park didnt have anything to do with the machine... they did it becauseits inspaarational (excuse the spelling). they did it with robert oppeinheimer and martin luther king jr. dont get mad because they used it in their album. people are just idiots and give all the credit to them.
@jasontseshinglee Mario Savio was a famous member of the Free Speech Movement at UC Berkeley back in 1964. The organization was made to protest for the right to free speech on campus in the form of political rallies and protests as well as support the civil rights movement. This speech was made when UC president Clark Kerr refused to lift the ban on on-campus political gatherings because it'd be equal to "the manager of a firm making a statement publicly in opposition to his board of directors".
ive always loved these speaches but id only clocked on to the fact that it was linkin park at the end,its good to see theyve drawn some attention to it but im ashamed that i didnt know about this before hand!
Goose bumps... as for linkin park, there is nothing wrong with them using this. Yes it existed way before linkin park, but more importantly they helped spread this to a much larger audiance which only makes it stronger!
I love how Linkin Park utilized this in their new album. They really have evolved into great artists. They aren't some generic pop singer who sings about the same old things OVER AND OVER AND OVER again.
Dude changed history with the free speech movement.Sometimes this footage is considered a record of the spark that lit the future as he was not afraid to question.
i know that ppl r saying that ppl only listen to this as if it was linkin park but u im here because of linkin park so they helped spread his message, so reli we should listen to mario via linkin park
Linkin Park did a terrific job spreading awareness of such a great speech. however, some people need to step back and realize that this goes MUCH further than LP.
good speech ...i see that people realize that other people realize that they comment on how its from wretches and kings. thats true however, this speech is very motivational
"Mario's famous speech is sampled in many songs including "An Ounce Of Prevention" from the album On Little Known Frequencies by the band From Monument to Masses, "Timelessness" by the band Fear Factory, "The Movie's Over" by the Australian band Cog, "Article IV" by the Santa Cruz band Good Riddance, "Here Come The Pigs" by Deadsoul Tribe and "Wretches and Kings" from the album"

@DillingerEscp First time I heard this from was not from that shitty band but from a good band. Fear Factory. So I got curious as where the speech came from and searched it only to find it here. This is a damned good speech.
@Shinakumiatsu Yeah the first time I heard this was in Timelessness by Fear Factory. It sounded awesome with the EQ sweep-type effect they used and the music behind it. At the time I had no idea who it was or what it was about, but later in life when I learned about Savio it really made sense to put it into that album.
really, I'm a Linkin Park's fan, but just stop talking about them in this video, and any videos about Mario Savio speaking this..Linkin Park brought me here too, but I don't wanna comment distracting..
i made an account on youtube just to leave this comment. all of you people who are giving linkin park credit for using this are a part of this machine. to turn this speech by savio into simulacrum is to participate in the most disgusting behavior. stop linkin parking and start thinking about what he is speaking of. who are the board of directors in your life? arent these same social organizations destroying cal right now!? if you think the machine is sickening then for the sake of all, stop it!
@amorreale22 Chill man. It's just a song. Besides, I think it was great how they used this in Wretches and Kings, and it defines the song well. To quote the song: "the people up top push the people down low"
@amorreale22 no offence really, but i dont get the logic behind the words. how giving linkin park credit is participating in the machine operation? why listening to wretches and kings means we have not started thinking about what he is speaking of? why listening to wretches and kings means we do not think the machine is sickening? thinking in another way, linkin park is helping to spread his words only... in all politeness, no offence intended
@amorreale22 I all honesty, Linkin Park Used it because they felt it reflected how they and most of their fan base felt. LP wanted more people to know who he was and to maybe, just maybe, be more curious about his cause and to start thinking, just as you have suggested some do. Unfortunately, most of them aren't much for independent thought and just blindly follow what sounds good as a rhythm or may get some people pumped up. but do nothing. LP is using the machine against itself.
1:20-1:46...real life: mario savio speech.... my head: STEEL UNLOAD! FINAL BLOW! WE THE ANIMALS TAKE CONTROL!! HEAR US NOW! CLEAR AND TRUE! WRETCHES AND KINGS WE COME FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!! LP4EVA!!!!!

I never heard of this before and i'm very happy LINKIN PARK put this in one of their songs. I know LINKIN PARK doesn't gets the credit in this amazing spech, but still, without them probably i would never have heard of Mario and what they did was just help spread the message with such and amazing song... I take my hat off to Mario AND Linkin Park.

@I2EF Linkin Park sucks. Fear Factory sampled it first as far as I know and btw, Linkin Park sucks. I think Savio would write a speech about how shitty Linkin Park is if he was alive. Too bad he isn't. Maybe Fear Factory will, I can still dream, right? Did I mention Linkin Park blows goats and I have proof?

@LeCauchemar1 First of all, it's your opinion dude, not a fact. 2nd i know Fear Factory sampled it first, but still, they don't get the credits, plus i'm not a fan of FF (never heard of them before) so if LP haven't put this in one of their songs i probably never have been here. 3rd We already know how much you hate LP, anyways, all you said it's an opinion; LeCauchemar1, you don't have proofs of anything. Peace.

Actually Linkin Park ripped it off a band called Good Riddance who were the first to sample the audio.

@voltairevillain Neither Linkin Park or that other band did the speech, all the credit goes to Mario, but by your logic "Good Riddance" ripped it off from Mario. Also I'm fan of Linkin Park not "Good Riddance" that's why i thank Linkin Park.

@I2EF It was also sampled by Fear Factory, paraphrased in Battlestar Galactica and probably a bunch of other places too, for me its one of the defining speeches of the 20th century powerful stuff.

A great speech. And for all the Linkin Park leg humpers, Fear Factory used this speech back in 1998 on the Obsolete album in the song, 'Timelessness.'

This is actually pathetic. Suddenly, millions of teenagers desire to "rage against the machine" simply, because Linkin Park included Savio's speech in their "Wretches & Kings". They are completely unaware of the context this came from. Savio's "bodies upon the gears" was actually acting as a catalyst for the "Free Speech Movement" (i.e., civil rights). Not some type of flippant compulsion to defy authority. And so, the majority allow the media to choose their political views for them.

@Hyperactiveroxerchic I totally understand what you are saying but from the way i look at it is that it is a start for the younger generation to open there eye's and see the world as it is and not what they where told it was. My oldest son was woke up by " Ministry" end of days part 2 so music is a powerful tool. I guess a saying comes to mind" There is a bit of truth to all the BS"

@jasontseshinglee Mario Savio was a famous member of the Free Speech Movement at UC Berkeley back in 1964. The organization was made to protest for the right to free speech on campus in the form of political rallies and protests as well as support the civil rights movement. This speech was made when UC president Clark Kerr refused to lift the ban on on-campus political gatherings because it'd be equal to "the manager of a firm making a statement publicly in opposition to his board of directors".

@Shinakumiatsu Yeah the first time I heard this was in Timelessness by Fear Factory. It sounded awesome with the EQ sweep-type effect they used and the music behind it. At the time I had no idea who it was or what it was about, but later in life when I learned about Savio it really made sense to put it into that album.

@amorreale22 I all honesty, Linkin Park Used it because they felt it reflected how they and most of their fan base felt. LP wanted more people to know who he was and to maybe, just maybe, be more curious about his cause and to start thinking, just as you have suggested some do. Unfortunately, most of them aren't much for independent thought and just blindly follow what sounds good as a rhythm or may get some people pumped up. but do nothing. LP is using the machine against itself.
