GLROCKWELL

Appearance of George Lincoln Rockwell at San Diego State College, 1962

 

1962-03-08

 

 

A news story from KABL reports the fracas that occurred when the leader of the American Nazi Party invited students onto the stage to use the microphone. The reporter also questioned whether "controversial" speakers would be invited in the future. There is a short quotation by Rockwell as part of the media coverage, and a further interview with Rockwell that repeats his platform for running for president of the United States. The interview continues, with Rockwell stating that his party members "live like rats." He claims "several hundred members" with "several million people" who are "too scared to contact us." Then the reporter said that KCBS recorded the attack on Rockwell and what happened as he made his way after the attack to the Humanities and Society Science Building--student catcalls and throwing of raw eggs and rocks. That recording is then broadcast. When asked why he puts up with abuse, he averred his belief in the truth of his cause. Speaking of his attackers, he accuses, "It's always the same people," clearly meaning those of Jewish heritage.
