Pasolini's Controversial Poem on the Student Movement Appears in L'espresso

Pasolini a Venezia nel 1968 (foto Biennale ASAC ) As a life-long Communist Party of Italy (PCI) member, Pasolini's Marxist positions politically may have been farther left than the student movement of the 1960s. However, in his poem called "The PCI to the young generation" [Il PCI ai giovani], he appeared to criticize the protestors and side with the police in the lines: When yesterday at Valle Guilia you came to blows with the policemen I sympathized with the policemen! Because the policemen are the children of the poor However, in other examinations of the poem, it is not believable that Pasolini sided with the right-wing or the police actions themselves... he seemed to be making note of the self-contradictory nature of the current struggle, which featured the students: You have daddy’s boy faces You were born with silver spoons in your mouths. However Pasolini is also fairly clear: We obviously are in agreement against the police instit

The “Battle on Tegeler Way” [Schlacht am Tegeler Weg] was a violent confrontation between the police and demonstrators. The demonstrators were mainly connected with the SDS [Students for Democratic Society] and the APO [Anti-Parliamentary Opposition], who had called for a protest on November 4, 1968 at Tegeler Way in Berlin-Charlottenburg. In addition to students, many workers and rockers were been among the demonstrators. This street battle is considered a major turning point in the history of the APO in the '68 movement and went down in the history of the political left in Germany. At the Battle of Tegeler Weg 130 police officers and 22 demonstrators were seriously injured.

Student Takeover at Howard University Turns the Tables of History

During the occupation of the Administration Building. The first major take-over of a college campus in 1968 took place not at Columbia University, but actually at Howard University, the mainly African-American campus located in Washington, D.C. The four-day takeover of the Administration Building, which ultimately led to the shutdown of the school, took place March 19 through March 23, 1968, and was a response to the university’s threats to expel nearly 40 students accused of disrupting the Charter Day Convocation that took place on March 1st, 1968. On that day, students who had been mounting a series of protests to demand the resignations of the University President Nasbrit and a more African-American curriculum, jumped the stage while Nasbrit was handing out honorary degrees. As a result, the event was shut down and 39 students were made subject to disciplinary hearings. The disruption of the Charter Day event was related to the previous year on March 21st 1967, when stu
