This is a great history of a too little known but essential group from the 60's. The ethics of their idealism makes for great debate in an age where the label terrorism begins to cover so many forms of protest and protest itself is squelched. It is an exciting and informative documentary, extremely well done, and even handed. Highly recommended for the classroom were any classrooms able or imaginative enough to employ it.
Great to see what the radicals were doing more than 50 years ago. Sad that they have taken over the government in the US.

This documentary is a must see for ALL humanity. Who stopped the corrupt U.S. genocide in the Viet Nam war??? The PEOPLE. This movie contains real footage, the facts, the history, and the story of how college students in America stood up and fought for what they believe in: peace, democracy, and freedom. The Weather Underground risked their lives fighting against racism and racist war. Today, some of them are college professors. This documentary blows away the typical sugar-coated racist fiction that Nationalists and Imperialists saturate their media with today. God Bless the Weather Underground.
Five stars because of the difficulty factor involved in getting some of the real story from some of the real people. Excellent and rare film footage. Hearing the story from the side of the Weather Underground places things more in perspective than the usual media portrayal. If you're thinking about it, if you're reading this - then just get it! This is a keeper and one you will want to show to others with similar interests . . .
War is hell, but the murderous weather underground did not do anything whatsoever to make things better, they were a bunch of hate mongers that only caused more death and destruction, siding with the communists instead of our own country, they all should have been executed, now our president and Bill Ayers along with his wife are great friends, do we really need a president that is friends with terrorists like them,
