1972Best.-Nr. 232591972. Prison and IncarcerationSocial activism Prison reform organizing conference broadside. Attica and San Quentin prison organizing stand at the center of this January 1972 Berkeley conference broadside which opens with a Brecht quote "Slave who is it that shall free you.all of us or none" and declares that "no one in America today is more a slave than the inmates in American prisons." The text ties prison struggle to "class and racial oppression" names the murders at Attica and San Quentin and frames the prison system as a site of beatings drugs "behavior modification" and brain surgery schemes. The conference was held just a few months after the 1971 Attica uprising during which prisoners revolted against inhumane treatment and racial discrimination in a violent struggle that left 39 dead. The conference roster grounds the prison rights moment Bay Area Black liberation featuring figures including Afeni Shakur Fay Stender and former Soledad Prison chief psychiatrist Frank Rundle. "Slave Who Is It Shall Free You . . . All of Us or None." The Struggle Inside. Prison Action Conference. Berkeley 1972. Single-sheet broadside 8.5 x 11 inches for a prison action conference scheduled for January 28-30 in Pauley Ballroom UC Berkeley printed on both sides. Recto features two halftone prison photographs and a dense typed manifesto arguing that prisoner demands had moved "from traditional demands for food and shelter to demands for civil and religious rights and finally to a general challenge to the prison system and the society which fosters it." It announces the conference as "a forum for self education and exploration of potential action to assist the prison movement" with key speakers Afeni Shakur a defendant in the Panther 21 trial Fay Stender a Berkeley attorney with years of prison movement experience and Frank Rundle former chief psychiatrist at Soledad Prison. Verso gives the full three-day program: Friday evening remarks by Stender and Shakur; Saturday sessions on "Medical Repression in Prisons" "Adult Authority and Indeterminate Sentencing" "Economics of Prisons" "Juvenile Reformatories and Detention" and "Prisoners Demands"; and Sunday sessions on "Women in Prison" "Defense of Political Prisoners" "Military Prisons" "Prison-Community Communications" "Prisoners Organizations" "County Jails and Pre-trial Detention" plus a closing "Panel Discussion on Racism." The broadside illustrates the actions and intentions of the Berkeley prison movement at a time when prison rebellion legal defense anti-racist analysis and ex-prisoner testimony were being brought before public audiences in the aftermath of the Attica Uprising. Afeni Shakur's appearance links the handbill to the political world of the Black Panther movement while the inclusion of sessions on women in prison political prisoners juvenile detention county jails and medical repression demonstrate the intersectional goals of the movement and the broadening of post-Attica activism from outrage over one massacre to a larger indictment of prison administration and criminal punishment. Some light staining; otherwise very good condition. A Bay Area prison movement piece that preserves both the rhetoric and the working program of organizing against U.S. imprisonment in the immediate aftermath of the 1971 Attica Uprising. unknown
1969Best.-Nr. 232621969. Student ActivismAnti-Racism UC Berkeley student organizing broadside advocating for Third World Studies and against racist education policy. "Third World students" voice a demand for "an autonomous Third World college" and the rejection of a Black Studies department "under the control of the administration." The broadside ties those demands to the School of Education and the political responsibilities of future teachers naming "the suppression of Eldridge Cleaver" as an example of how the university functioned within "the perpetuation of racist exploitation." Its argument is built section by section through "What Is Racism" "Education and Racism" "The University and Racism" "Third World Fight Against Racism" "Student Teachers" and "The Education Caucus" moving from campus labor and admissions policy to housing wage inequality Vietnam era military service and public school teaching. Student Teachers: Support the Fight Against Racism. Education Caucus. Berkeley circa 1969. Mimeographed leaflet 2 pages on one sheet printed recto and verso 8.5 x 14 inches. The text opens by stating that "for nine months Third World students on the Berkeley campus have been negotiating with the administration" then argues that administrative concessions left control of curriculum and hiring in university hands. Subsequent sections sharpen that claim through specific figures and institutions asserting that Black people make "on the average $2500 less a year than do white workers" that "44% of black people live" in inadequate housing and that "over 70% of the combat deaths of California in Vietnam are chicano and black." The School of Education material is especially pointed arguing that future teachers receive "no courses dealing with the basis of racism or with ways of realistically combatting racism in the public schools" and calling on student teachers to "boycott all classes on campus" and join picketing "at the Sather Gate picket line from 11:00-2:00 every day." The leaflet closes with meeting information for the Education Caucus and three telephone numbers for organizing support. The piece belongs to the Berkeley strike wave that produced the most consequential campus battle over Third World Studies and Ethnic Studies in the United States. By directing an appeal to student teachers invoking New York teachers' strikes and proposing "a 199 course next quarter" and ultimately "a permanent course on racism and teaching Third World students" it documents a concrete goal of anti-racist student protest to improve the training and awareness of educators in racial inequality. Light toning and a few light ink marks; clean and sound overall; overall very good condition. A Berkeley student broadside linking the Third World Liberation Front strike to teacher training curriculum and the formation of anti-racist educational practice. unknown

With Prolegomena and with Annotations Select Translated and Original by Charles P. Krauth D.D. Philadelphia: J.B. Lippincott & Co. 1874.

"The principle which underlay all Berkeley's philosophical writing was based on a rejection of all speculation such as Locke's about the meaning and necessity of matter as a primal necessity to any theory of human understanding. Briefly Berkeley maintained that no existence is conceivable or possible which is not conscious spirit or the ideas of which such a spirit is conscious. This presupposes complete equation of subject and object: no object can exist without a Mind to conceive it. Without the pre-existence of the Mind mater and substance cause and effect can have no meaning. In the Principles externality absolutely independent of all mind is shown to be an unreal impossible conception: true substance is the conscious spirit and true causality the free action of such a spirit. Physical substance and causes are relations among phenomena arbitrary though by the action of the Mind constant. Connexions between them are viewed subjectively as the suggestion or associations of the human mind and objectively as the operation of the Universal Mind. Thus the universe is the sum of human experience and forms a symbol of the divine universal intelligence: esse est percipi" Printing and the Mind of Man. Norman Library 196. PMM 176.

1969Best.-Nr. 180251969. Distributed by the Radical Student Union at UC Berkeley. Outcry! from Occupied Berkeley. Vol. 2. May 1969. Quadruple folded. This newsletter gives the chronology of the clash over People's Park that occurred on May 15 1969 which was precipitated by the University's desire to turn a lot near campus that it had razed and purchased into a sports arena. The University aggressively acquired this land and razed the buildings on it due to concerns about growing crime. However in the months that followed hippies and other people in the community started to repurpose the land which had fallen into disrepair to create a community space with functional gardens and leisure areas and thus People's Park was born. The Park was soon enclosed and patrolled by National Guardsmen until the tension reached a fever pitch on May 15 when an Alameda County Sheriff's Deputy fired upon a peaceful onlooker James Rector who later died from his wounds. This newsletter gives this history in greater details and calls upon people to rally to People's Park. It denounces capitalist property relations the Vietnam War and imperialism police brutality and sexism. On verso is a print of a fist emerging from a rose that has sundered the earth around it with the slogan "Let a thousand parks bloom." In very good condition. unknown
