A statement by the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) linking international anti-colonial/anti-imperialist national liberation movements with the revolutionary process in the U.S. spearheaded by minority activists and their white allies. The text then outlines the future of revolutionary struggle composed of two parts: developing…a military perspective (armed/guerrilla struggle) and building a mass base, which includes incorporating a feminist perspective, building a non-racist movement, and creating organizations that can withstand the enemy's repression. The pamphlet concludes by referencing the infamous SLA bank holdup that included heiress Patricia Hearst and the subsequent capture of SLA members which led to the organization's dissolution. The pamphlet was distributed in the November 1975 issue of Dragon, the aboveground mouthpiece of a variety of leftist terrorist groups published by the Bay Area Research Collective. Stapled, illustrated wrappers (8 ½" x 5 ½"), [24] p., illus. Some offsetting to the bottom edge and lower spine, else a near fine copy. Only seven copies in WorldCat institutions.
