Castro Sweep 1989 | From tape label: "I am Patrick Henry, owner of SuperStar Video 17th in SF. As a reporter/co-producer of award-winning TV program "Community Action Network" news, I found myself behind police lines recording what appeared to be a routine (and rather small) group of protesters confronting the SFPD. What develops leads outraged onlookers to "take to the streets". An unedited version of this tape was voluntarily passed along to the ACLU, pursuing their case against the City and SFPD. I thought, in case others have not likewise documented this event, that I'd provide this copy to you for your viewing." |
