The original members included Willie Wolfe, Emily Harris, Bill Harris, Nancy Ling Perry, Russell Little, Joe Remiro and Donald DeFreeze. SLA members were associated with a number of crimes, including robbery, murder, and kidnapping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile the SLA is known primarily for the kidnapping of Patricia Campbell Hearst, which occurred on February 4, 1974, the kidnapping was only one of many actions executed by the SLA, and just one episode in a progression of activities that would occur during the SLA's movement toward complete economic, social, and political liberation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA primary goal of the organization was the\"gaining of freedom and self-determination and independence for all their people and races.\" The SLA utilized tactics of expropriation, direct action and armed propaganda to stimulate public awareness and action around issues of poverty, housing, racism, women's rights, and prison issues. Despite undertaking a number of controversial and sometimes polarizing actions, one of the foremost successes of the SLA was forcing the Hearst family to give away millions of dollars worth of food from Safeway grocery stores to impoverished communities in the Bay Area. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis collection includes original SLA communiqués, statements and publications; and press releases, as well as statements from other Bay Area radical groups concerning SLA actions and ideas. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded within: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll known SLA organizing papers and manifestos.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndictments handed down by the SLA \"court of the people.\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSLA letters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll SLA taped message transcripts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStatements from hostage-turned-SLA-member Patty Hearst\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn appendix including public responses by government and groups who supported the SLA.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the definitive collection of documents and official communications from the 22-month history of the SLA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 190\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 01, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52747304141133,"sku":"9781957452029","price":30.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/WlpZZjhBblovQ2hhZHlDTW9xNC9pQT09.webp?v=1762887326","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.us\/products\/last-words-for-war-statements-of-the-symbionese-liberation-army-sla-the-patty-hearst-kidnapping-22-month-life-of-the-sla-paperback","provider":"belfastbooks.us","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
