About this episode

This was originally intended to be part of the previous episode, but I decided to break them up.


Warning: EXTREME LANGUAGE AND GRAPHIC CONTENT


The student movement is dead. The Black Panther Party is torn apart by J. Edgar Hoover's FBI. Activism devolves into struggle sessions and terrorism, as the movement for civil rights and social justice is left to "drunks, hypes, freaks, and madmen." Treason drives Jim Jones off a cliff.
