Scenes include footage of California Communist Party members demonstrating in the streets, Congressman Francis Walter, Harry Bridges, Archie Brown, Douglas Wachter, William Mandell, University of California, Berkeley students and excepts from the Daily Californian. A film using the same footage, but a different narration called Operation correction was made by the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California to counter Operation abolition. |
