Student Protests in the 1960s/70s

Today hundreds of thousands of British students will be taking to the streets in London and beyond, occupying college buildings and dodging police kettles.

Their common cause? Fury at today’s House of Commons vote which is set to see dozens of Liberal Democrat MPs openly betray their election pledge on student fees.

Student revolt is nothing new of course. This video documents campaigning Californian students in the 60s and 70s. You get a nice rock/hippy soundtrack to boot.

Aux Armes!
