Abstract

For five days a city and its university were separated by anger, mistrust, and suspicion. On the sixth day, this city and its university were separated by hate, grief, and fear. This student production is dedicated to the seventh day.

Description

This 16mm black and white documentary film was shot and edited by Portland State students during the student strike actions on the South Park Blocks in May 1970. In 2009, the film was selected by the National Film Preservation Foundation for grant funding to support its full preservation.
