An anti Vietnam demonstration filmed on regular 8mm during the height of the peace movement. I would skip a required course at the Jesuit Canisius College. The required course was Military Science where we were required to put on army uniforms and march and become members of ROTC. New York State law at that time required Freshman to take a course in gymnastics. Since Cansius had torn down the gym, they considered marching as the same as going to the gym. I finally passed the course with the lowest mark of "C" by turning in a final papers based on the Poetry of Ho Chi Mihn.

"An anti-Vietnam-war demonstration (like many others) turns into a vivid memory of Angerame's freshman years at the Jesuit Canisius College and Buffalo's draft resistance movement. Filmed on regular 8mm during the height of the peace movement, Film Diary #10 Buffalo 1969 documents one of the most tumultuous chapters in U.S. history with both gravity and humor, showing that peace activists came from different backgrounds, but were united in one cause, which further deconstructs the larger mythology around the antiwar movement." -- Kornelia Boczkowska
