Publisher's Synopsis
Thirty years ago, prisons across the US burned. Here's how, why and what happened. Who were the Attica Brothers? Why did they seize control of the prisons? Who was George Jackson? Why was he murdered by a prison administration? What do these 'lost' histories tell us about prison repression and the struggle for freedom today? 30 years on, through archive audio, music and interviews, the voices of the Attica Brothers, Jonathan Jackson Jr., Angela Davis, Ruchell Magee, David Hilliard and more introduce and grapple with this legacy.
