Grønlands luftrum atomvåbenfri
Folketinget vedtager dagsorden, hvorefter: “Folketinget går ud fra, at regeringen ved at søge fremskaffet absolutte garantier for, at der ikke oplagres atomvåben i Grønland og for at det grønlandske luftrum holdes som atovåbenfri zone, vil sikre, at Danmarks atompolitik opretholdes i alle dele af riget og Danmarks suverænitet respekteres”.

The Orangeburg Massacre
Three black students were killed and 50 wounded in a confrontation with highway patrolmen at a South Carolina State rally supporting arrested civil rights protesters. Orangeburg’s only bowling alley, the All Star, was still segregated years after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 had outlawed discrimination based on race in such public accommodations.
On the previous two days, college students had entered the bowling alley, refusing to leave after they were not allowed to bowl. Fifteen of the second group were arrested, writes This Week in Peace History.
Documenting the Orangeburg Massacre : Campus killings of black students received little news coverage in 1968, but a book about them keeps their memory alive. / : Jack Bass. Nieman Reports / Fall 2003.
