Thirty years ago a group of American radicals announced their intention to overthrow the U.S. government. In "The Weather Underground", former members, including Bernardine Dohrn, Bill Ayers, Mark Rudd, David Gilbert and Brian Flanagan, speak publicly about the idealistic passion that drove them to "bring the war home." Outraged over racism and the Vietnam War, the Weather Underground bombed targets across the country that they considered emblematic. The group's carefully organized clandestine network managed to successfully evade one of the largest manhunts in FBI history.

On Friday, 7/25, "The Weather Underground", a new documentary by independent filmmakers Sam Green (SF-based) and Bill Siegel opens at The Castro Theatre in San Francisco. The Tuesday 7/29 7pm show will be a benefit screening for the Video Activist Network and SF-IMC. There will also be a benefit screening for the Jericho Movement and the Friends of Marilyn Buck on Wednesday 7/30 7pm at the Shattuck Cinema in Berkeley. Please come out to support these projects and see a great film!
