| Summary |
This panoramic overview chronicles the activities of the George Jackson Brigade, a radical, 1970s, multiracial and sexually diverse organization?veterans of prisoners?, women?s, gay, and black liberation movements. The Brigade embraced bank robberies and armed insurrection to wage war against what they felt was an unjust government. Through a wide array of surveillance reports, feature articles from mainstream and alternative presses, and the organization?s prolific, spontaneous communications and substitutive political statements, this collection reveals this body of propaganda and meditations on praxis. |
