| Summary: | Several people are carrying signs that read, "Strike For Peace / May 21 / Be on Campus" (featuring a raised fist), but one young man is wearing an American flag armband and a naval cadet is standing at the back of the group. The event was led by the Human Rights Forum, which called for a strike in objection to the U.S. involvement in southeast Asia and the recent deaths of student demonstrators. Demonstrations supporting President Nixon took place on campus the same day, but there was no violence or need for law enforcement officers. |
