A nation of law? (1968-1971) : civil rights activists and government officials provide unprecedented insight into the sometimes violent and unethical response to black activism from local and federal law enforcement agencies.

Urban rebellion, campus unrest, and the killing of two Black Panther leaders result in a "law and order" crackdown that has tragic results at New York's Attica State Correctional Facility. -- container. |
