The House Un-American Activities Commission (HUAC) held hearings in San Francisco from May 12–14, 1960, as part of their ongoing charade of investigating “communist subversion.” They were unprepared for the reception they received, as hundreds of peaceful protestors turned out to picket the proceedings. After it was discovered that most of the seats in City Hall had been given to known HUAC supporters, the number of protestors only grew. On the second day, the riot squad sprayed protestors in the rotunda with a fire house, and media around the country reported that there had been “a riot,” placing the blame squarely on the protestors. On the final day, over 5,000 people showed up to protest the HUAC and the hearings. The event made such an impact in the news that the HUAC released a propaganda film, which was rejoinder by another video released by the ACLU.
