Near the rally, people dressed in yellow to support Hong Kong protest. A Hong Kong protest supporter on the left contrasted to the indifferent students from Chinese Student Association on the right.

 

I chatted with those two Chinese students and they were obviously uncomfortable when Hong Kong was mentioned. They claimed that though they had friends from Hong Kong and Taiwan, amongst international students, they didn't talk about politics, said they emphatically. Really? It was not the case when I was an international student in the U.S. many years ago. How time changed!

 

Interestingly, or sadly, one of them majored in media. Free media with Chinese characteristics?

In the summer of '65 I met a girl from UC Berkeley here, a girl who altered my somewhat dismissive views of the Berkeley "Free Speech Movement." She was probably a factor in my applying to Berkeley for graduate school. But when I got there in 1968, three years later, I chose not to look her up -- if she was even around.

Until the early or mid-sixties political activity was not allowed ("Rule 17") on California campuses. This may have been true in other states too. Motivated in part by opposition to the House Un-American Committee (HUAC), in part by sympathy with the Cuban Revolution, in part by a specific event on their campus, and in part by a general wish to achieve greater freedom of expression, several students at El Camino College published this paper and passed it out on campus early one morning. The famous movement along these lines--the Free Speech Movement--occurred later at U C Berkeley.

Free Speech Movement - Where it all began in Dec. 1964.

Quiet today - at least for the moment.
