On December 2, 1964, Mario Savio addressed a mass rally from the steps of Sproul Hall, UC Berkeley. This kinetic typography video shares some of the most memorable words from the Free Speech Movement, dubbed "The Machine Speech." Here are the words of Mario Savio that appear in the video:
"There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can't take part; you can't even passively take part, and you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!"
