06 August 1970,

300 anti-militaristic and anti-capitalist activists enter the Disneyland amusement park in the United States. The Youth International Party had been announcing the call for four winds for days, and the police took the amusement park that day. The aim of the action was, above all, to combat the war in Vietnam. Protestants laughed at authority with humor and the direction of the amusement park decided to empty and close the park in the afternoon.
