[Christ was Socialist]

The documentry film the weather underground will be on pbs tonight at 10 pm e.s.t as a part of the Independant lens series. It documents the group but a macrocosm is the failure of the New left. We need to learn from thier mistakes, there qubilism exed them out as a factor after vietnam. These wern't you peaceful protestors. They managed to get a bomb into a bathroom at the state department as well as many other places that would be impossible today. The fbi launched a vicious spree to discredit the left at the same time. Here are sites with more info

3. I thought it was in my area too

I was looking at my pbs stations (i have cable) and couldn't find it, then i went into the 900's and there were more pbs channels and it was there. The name of the listing is "Independent Lens"
