innocent. A state of mind, seeing how you think all the
achools ought to be destroyed and think the overthrow of
the U.S. Government‘d make a pretty interesting movie
(laughter), (obscene) like that. Queen Julius, Julius the
Just Hoffman. You wouldn't believe this guy, not in your
‘wildest dreams. He's 74 years old. His life has spanned
the history of modern western civilization. He was alive
at both Balkan Wars, just missed the Titanic (laughter),
prides himself on his civil rights accomplishments. They
were questioning the jury, you know, they ah at one point
he ah asked perspective jurors ah have you known Mr. Kuntzler
from New York? He always sticks in that Kunstler comes
from New York, you know, and Mr. Newark (accented)--what's
your name, sir? He says fineglass? Wineglass, yes. He's

trial, Buffalo Nine trial, and all other trials like that be
stopped. €
"So we know that ours ain't the only trial. We know
it's symbolic of a lot of trials and a lot of (obscene) that's
coming down on a whole lot of people. Whether they're involved
in the Black Liberation struggle, whether they're supporting
the NLF and the people of Vietnam in the heroic struggle
against fascist imperialism (applause) or whether it's about
people that, who are engaged in a new cultural revolution ‘cause
