Abstract
We examine the relationship between student activism, censorship, and social class through an archival study of what was known as "'The Black Moochie' controversy" at Salem State College from 1969-1970. A content analysis of student newspaper articles surrounding the controversy provides vivid insight into a time when campus activism was occurring nationwide and sentiments around morality were greatly divided.
