A rare suite of photographic prints documenting the Stop the Draft Week protests held from October 16-20, 1967 in Oakland, California. It was one of the earliest and major Anti-War Movement protests, with over 10,000 demonstrators marching throughout the week. The protesters, made up of a coalition of student, labor, peace, and civil rights activists, focused their attention on the Oakland Army Induction Center, with over 3,000 marchers converging on the recruitment center on the first day. Over 200 formed a barricade with their bodies and handed out leaflets in an effort to get recruits to change their mind in joining the war effort. Police repression was swift, as they ordered the demostrators to disperse before attacking them with their nightsticks. Over 20 were injured and more than 40 were arrested. This was one of the first instances of police brutality during the Anti-War Movement protests. By the end of the week large scale confrontations with the police ensued, as the protesters began to fight back. Seven activists (Reese Eherlich, Terence Cannon, Mike Smith, Steve Hamilton, Bob Mandel, Jeff Segal, and Frank Bardacke) were arrested during this week of demonstations and were charged with, "conspiracy to trespass, to commit a public nuisance, and to resist, delay, and obstruct police officers." They became known as the Oakland Seven. This portfolio was apparently created to raise funds for their defense, and they were eventually acquitted of all charges in 1969.
