Fifteen items, including broadsides, leaflets, and newspapers, related to the Attica Brigade and the Revolutionary Students Brigade.
A collection of material relating to the Attica Brigade: an anti-imperialist, pro-prisoner student organization with a communistic message that evolved into the more doctrinaire Marxist-Leninist Revolutionary Student Brigade in 1974. The collection provides an overview of the issues and messaging of a substantial splinter faction from the SDS; critically, the Brigade and other Revolutionary Youth Movement organizations supported the Black Panther Party. A few items not recorded in OCLC.
