Today in Labor History July 4, 1977: The George Jackson Brigade planted a bomb at a power station in Olympia, Washington, in solidarity with a prison strike at the Walla Walla State Penitentiary. They were a revolutionary group founded in the mid-1970s, based in Seattle, named after George Jackson, a prisoner and Black Panther who was shot and killed during an alleged escape attempt at San Quentin Prison in 1971. The Brigade was composed of both communist and anarchist veterans of the women's liberation, LGBTQ and Black Nationalist movements.

@MikeDunnAuthor Nice historical reminder - the only strange thing I perceive from the text is the fact that, as far as I know, communist anarchists are opposed to all kinds of nationalism. So they probably wouldn't have supported black nationalism, but only opposed the notion of blacks being seen as less valuable than any other human being...(?)
