Anticolonial protest in Goa[edit]

5000 Indians protest against colonial rule in Goa, 1955. 22 civilians were killed by Portugese authorities in this peaceful demonstration.

This was an important event in the history of the Indian state of Goa. It's good to counter systemic bias when possible, and fortunately this newsreel footage was released into the public domain in 1976. Appears in Goa, History of Goa, and Political integration of India.
