Newsreel was founded in late 1967 after the March on the Pentagon. This collective created over 60 films from 1968-1972 documenting social justice movements across the country, including unique footage of New York chapters of the Black Panthers and Young Lords, some of the first large college campus strikes, second wave feminist demonstrations, and anti-Vietnam War protests. Stock Footage Consultant Linda Page will talk about these materials and their importance to TWN today, and will share clips of some of the films in this collection.
