Community Meeting - Jobs for Hunters Point

About This Item

KRON News footage from August 25th 1967 in San Francisco featuring scenes from a heated community meeting in which residents are demanding jobs for the Bayview Hunters Point neighborhood. Several speakers such as Supervisor Terry Francois, Rev. Cecil Williams and Ray Taliaferro are heckled by a frustrated audience. As one spokesman on a panel puts it: "We don't want to accept all this off-the-wall propaganda that y'all have been giving us for the past 9 or 10 years. We want something concrete ... we want it now."
