June 22, 1996. A dozen members of a self-anointed and unwelcome KKK group came to Ann Arbor to hold a thumb-in-your-eye rally at City Hall. A protest group, the National Women's Rights Organizations Coalition (NWROC) formed to oppose them. After the rage had been mounting for awhile, this simpleminded redneck wandered up, wearing a Confederate-flag T-shirt and drinking a bottle of Lipton tea. The crowd tore off after him, he fell, and the mob pounced, striking for blood. Keshia Thomas, horrified, threw herself over him to stave off the angry blows. Moments earlier, Thomas, 18, had been in the NWROC group, shouting at the KKK. It was a heroic and passionate moment in a crazy afternoon, well captured in these photographs.
In a story in People Magazine, Thomas was quoted as saying, "You don't beat a man up because he doesn't believe the same things you do. He's still somebody's child."
The guy never dropped his tea bottle . . . .
(He was later identified as one Albert McKeel, Jr.)

London Students in Anti Vietnam War Demonstration
Throughout 1968 countless anti-Vietnam war protests were held all over both the UK and the world. Many of these demonstrations descended into violent riots, the most severe in Paris and Mexico City. On Sunday 17th March a crowd of protestors, largely made up of students, clashed with police outside the American embassy in London, in what is now known as the Battle of Grosvenor Square. The march was lead by Tariq Ali and Vanessa Redgrave, culminating in a portion of the 25,000 strong crowd being cordoned off in the square by police, both mounted and on foot. Mick Jagger was present for the ensuing violence, resulting in the song Street Fighting Man; even ‘sleepy London town’ had joined in the global activism.
This photograph, taken outside The London School of Economics and Political Science in May of 1968, shows students protesting against the support of the British government for the American war with Vietnam. The comparatively peaceful sit-in was comprised of around 200 students of LSE, largely made up of the Socialist Society, and was hoped to be the start of a revolution of the French model by its organisers. Here we see a section of the multitude of students, an air of hope and positivity as they congregate outside the university. The crowd has an undulating uniform surface, reflecting the shared ideologies of the gathering, punctuated by the static policeman in the foreground.
