"Operation Abolition," 1960

From the Records of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Audiovisual Materials Series: Propaganda film prepared by the House Committee on Un-American Activities, in which the events of a student protest against the HUAC hearings in San Francisco are distorted. The response film "Operation Correction" can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Be8fZNZAWN4. Image and sound at the end of the film are not synchronized, and the first and last fractions are cut off.

The film is discussed in "The Reel Mudd," the audiovisual blog of the Seeley G. Mudd Manuscript Library, which holds the papers of the ACLU. For more information or to comment on the film see http://blogs.princeton.edu/reelmudd/2010/10/operation-abolition-and-operation... .
