- Description:
- Calls for: "The goals of UDM's boycott of Aggie's remain simply: 1) that all minimums be applied uniformly and without discrimination, 2) that they be applied only during peak hours, 3) that they be reasonable in amount, and 4) that the amount and hours be clearly posted. We urge you to support this boycott and withdraw your patronage from Aggie's until its management aggress to negotiate with UDM representatives." Background information: The University District Movement (UDM) was formed in 1967 as a reaction against police and local merchant harassment of "hippies" and racial minorities. (Crowley, Walt. Rites of Passage: A Memoir of the Sixties in Seattle. Seattle: University of Washington Press. pp. 65-67)
