On Dec. 2, 1968, student protests that grew and spread from a rally in Washington Square brought mayhem to several boroughs. Youths threw stones and bottles, and the police brandished nightsticks. In the Ocean Hill-Brownsville area of Brooklyn, a student was arrested. The next day’s article quoted Joseph Pilati, a reporter from The Village Voice: “I was leaning against a fence on the sidewalk when the cops started charging down the avenue, swinging clubs anywhere they could indiscriminately.” He dropped his notes, “and then was clubbed in the face.” Photo: Barton Silverman/The New York Times
