After USS Liberty was attacked, the ziops just keep coming.
"In October 1969, hundreds of young people wielding lead pipes and clad
in football helmets marched through an upscale Chicago shopping
district, pummeling parked cars and smashing shop windows. Thus began
the "Days of Rage," the first demonstration of the Weathermen, later
known as the Weather Underground. Outraged by the Vietnam War and racism
in America, this group of former student radicals waged a low-level war
against the United States government through much of the 1970s, bombing
the Capitol building, breaking Timothy Leary out of prison and finally
evading the FBI by going into hiding. In THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND, former
Weathermen including Bernardine Dohrn, Bill Ayers, Mark Rudd and David
Gilbert speak frankly about the idealist passions and trajectories that
transformed them from college activists into the FBI's Most Wanted. The
Weather Underground emerged when Dohrn and a group of fellow University
of Chicago students split with the campus-run Students for a Democratic
Society, or SDS, because they disagreed with the SDS's peaceful protest
tactics against the Vietnam War. Dubbing itself the Weathermen, this new
organization took its name from a line in Bob Dylan's "Subterranean
Homesick Blues"—"you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind
blows"—and within months had set off bombs at the National Guard
headquarters and set in motion plans to bomb targets across the country
that it considered emblematic of the worldwide violence sanctioned by
the U.S. government. Using extensive archival material such as
photographs, film footage and FBI documents, THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND
chronicles the Weathermen's public rise and fall and offers a rare
insider look into the group's private conflicts. Fueled by righteous
anger, these "white" [when they're criminals they are called white, otherwise they take credit for being smartest people on planet, and definitely not white], middle-class students were also widely criticized
for their controversial—some say misguided—politics. As former SDS
president Todd Gitlin says: "Like Bonnie and Clyde, many of them were
attractive personally. They were into youth, exuberance, sex, drugs.
They wanted action." Ultimately, the Weathermen's carefully organized,
clandestine network managed to successfully dodge the FBI for years,
although the group's members would eventually re-emerge to life in a
country that was dramatically different than the one they had hoped
their efforts would inspire. As an exploration of the Weathermen in the
context of other social movements of the time, the film also features
rare footage and interviews with former SDS members and the Black
Panthers, further examining the U.S. government's suppression of dissent
during the 1960s and 1970s. Looking back at their years underground,
former Weather Underground members paint a compelling portrait of
troubled times, revolutionary times and the forces that drove their
resistance home." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ax5unV2cLI
