Notes on Revolution: The Weather Underground and The Black Panther Party Pt. 1
Description
Jorge and Jamie interview Zayd Dohrn (@ZaydDohrn), the son of Weather Underground founders Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, and Jamal Joseph, former member of the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army. Zayd and Jamal walk us through why young revolutionaries were drawn to the Weather Underground, the Black Panther Party, and the Black Liberation Army. We also discuss the different tactics used by these formations and how the state repressed them.
