August 22, 1971 Dear People: Unhappy news sometimes has extreme way of eluding the pain of sorrows. Upon george hearing about the death of George J ack­ our brother son, our first reaction was one of mixed GRAB HOLD feelings. We wanted -to grab hold of the you died in action • • • bars and shake them until all of the life like john henery poured from our body. We even felt like warrior of the people screaming to the top of our voice. But hot flesh against cold steel somehow-and this we cannot explain-a nose flared tranquil feeling of bliss took possession of eyes flashing us. For a split second we felt a sense of terrible black guerrilla screaming . liberty. "George is not dead", we whispered to ourselves. "George, our piercing the hot blue ozone beautiful Brother, you are alive! Your with the word truth is marching on. We embrace you, FREEDOM Comrade, with all our revolutionary fer­ vor." There was no more sorrow, only the loud your voice ardent desire to fulfill the lofty dreams of cold your hate a free world cherished so dearly by our true your love for the people fallen Comrade who died so gallantly in relentless the field of battle. . uncompromizing There is a tremendous sense of peace, knowing on the peers. We see it in the faces of those who loved George. No, it is not the truth kind you read about in thick books. We like fire search in vain for words to describe the ~ust be crushed ruthlessly feeling. But it is there and it shows in the and you are silent now eyes of the REAL one. Even our voices grey piglead sounded different-almost holy. In all brought george jackson down ages there are tragedies and each one is ice in the heart of courage marked with its own uniqueness. Strange how the death of one man can mean so but the echo of your rage much. iuebounding in the hearts We thank you, George, for your love, of the people for your teachings, for your examples, slaves are screaming FREEDOM and we will try with all our hearts and the bullets you fashioned soul to carry out your lofty dreams of a are now in the hands of the people free world.

SE ASIA: THANKS BUT · NO THANKS Cambodia is beginning talks with South Vietnam to get over 10,000 South Vietnamese troops out of Cambodia. South Vietnamese troops have been harassing Cambodian villages since their invasion a year and a half ago. Pillaging, looting, raping and general brutality, have been their primary activities while in Cambodia. And in South Vietnam, the South Vietnamese GIs are doing much the same thing. American pacification officials in South Vietnam have recently expressed fears that pillaging and murdering by South Vietnamese GIs is going to under­ mine the peasants' confidence in the Thieu-Amerikan government (as if they have any left).

REGARDING THE QUESTION OF POWER IN SOUTH ,VIET NAM The U.S. Government must really respect the SOuth Viet Nam people's right to self-determination, put an end to its interference in the internal affairs of South Viet Nam, cease to support the bellicose group headed by Nguyen Van Thieu now in office in Saigon, and stop all manoeuvers, including tricks on elections, aimed at maintaining the puppet Nguyen Van Thieu. By various means, the political, social, and religious forces in South Viet Nam aspiring to peace and national concord will form in Saigon a new administration favoring peace, independance, neutrality and dem­ ocracy. The Provisional Revolutionary Geveroment of the Republic of South Viet Nam will immediately enter into talks with that administra­ tion in order to settle the following questions: a) to form a broad three-segment government of national concord that will assume its functions during the period between the restoration of peace arid the holding of general elections and that will organize general elections in South Viet Nam. .

New York: Doubleday, 970. $5.95. /() to DANCE THE EAGLE TO SLEEP is a ision of revolution in novel form. It tells Ie story of young men and women who orne together (during a high school dem­ nstration and takeover) to form a. tribe. hey call themselves Indians (after one of .le "leaders" of the group, Corey, who is alf-Indian), and they are dedicated to ~c ··· mashing the state. Instead the state mashes them, and three of them are left · $the~ t the end to recruit and rebuild the orces which will forge a new society. As a vision, the book is fascinating­ 'iercy moves deftly back and forth ·etween the minds of her characters. :ach chapter is written from the point of iew of one of the main characters: :orey, the visionary half-Indian who ,egins the tribe and is at its center; oanna, the runaway who becomes uorey's mate; Shawn, the rock-star who gives up fame and money for the revolu­ tion; Billy, the oddball genius in physics

and mathematics who decides to use his knowledge against the system. As they are faced with choices in crisis situations, each character develops and moves from his or her youth into the more complex world of adulthood. As a chronicle of personal development DANCE THE EAGLE TO SLEEP is sensitive-it touch­ es upon the pain and poignency of youth trying to move together and relate to each other in totally new ways. As a novel of or about revolution, the book chronicles the failure of the youths' . attempts to develop an alternative soc­ iety. The details of their failure bears a spooky, almost too real resemblance to life within a Weather collective. Aside from the glaring difference in the wo­ men's roles and the Indians' tolerance of monogamy, much of the militarism and .. .;:':' third world rhetoric is the same.
