Summary Note

"It is the result of an event which occurred in San Diego, California, on the evening of August 27, 1965, from 7:30 to 8:30 P.M., PDT, when the three television stations serving the San Diego area joined together for the first time in local television history to present, simultaneously on all three channels, a discussion of the racial issues in San Diego as a result of disturbances which occurred only one week earlier. Appearing on this historic program... were nine carefully chosen representatives of various groups, organizations and minorities in the community, a well-known moderator and three newsmen representing each of the three stations." "Included in this booklet is a full transcript of the program as telecast. In addition ... the written reaction ... 270 pieces of mail expressing, many at length, the varying opinions of a community which, like many communities, faces the challenges of the racial issue."
