"We are cozy cuddly/armed and dangerous/and we will/raze the
fucking prisons/to the ground." In an attempt to deliver on this
promise, the George Jackson Brigade launched a violent three-year
campaign in the mid-1970s against corporate and state institutions
in the Pacific Northwest. This campaign, conceived by a group of
blacks and whites, both straight and gay, claimed fourteen
bombings, as many bank robberies, and a jailbreak. Drawing on
extensive interviews with surviving members of the George Jackson
Brigade, "Guerrilla USA" provides an inside-out perspective on the
social movements of the 1970s, revealing the whole era in a new and
more complex light. It is also a compelling exploration of the true
nature of crime and a provocative meditation on the tension between
self-restraint and anger in the process of social change.
