Prisons on Fire: Attica, George Jackson and Black Liberation

Thirty years ago America's prisons burned. Here's how, why, and what happened. Who were the Attica Brothers? Who was George Jackson? And why was he murdered by the prison administration? And what do these forgotten histories tell us about prisons, repression, and the struggle for freedom today? Now, through archive audio, music and interviews, the voices of the Attica Brothers, Jonathan Jackson Jr., Angela Davis, Amiri Baraka, James Baldwin, Harry Belafonte, former Black Panther Chief Of Staff David Hilliard and more, introduce and grapple with this legacy.
