Prism's Liberation Films
Reach Screen Tonight
Beginning at 7 tonight, the
Liberation Theater will make the
Prism Coffeehouse on Rugby Road
a 'strategic free territory,' with the
presentation of films on Vietnam,
student demonstrations, the Black
Panthers, and other topics.
The films will be shown continuously
at 7, 9, and 11 p.m. There is
a $1 admission charge to meet the
cost of the films.
One of the films being shown is
titled 'Hanoi 13.' It was made by a
group of students who defied State
Department orders and flew to
Vietnam to film on-the-spot coverage
of fighting and battle conditions.
The film 'On Strike' was made
during the student disorders on the
campus of San Francisco State last
year. Also the film 'Black Panthers'
concerns that group's activities at
San Francisco State last year.
The purpose of the Liberation
Theater, as put in a statement
released by it, is to 'defy all
puritanical restraints on culture and
sex; create mind and cultural
revolution everywhere; express and
develop through art, work, dance,
sculpture, horticulture, and imagination;
use the academic community
for the purposes of self and
group liberation; basic human needs
shall be met through communal
responsibility.'
