Title: Zombie: The Weather Underground's Long Term Plan
Time/date: Sat, Nov 1, 2008 at 3:04:55 pm

With help from LGF readers ‘experiencedtraveler’ and ‘Sharmuta,’ Zombie has dug up another rare document: the first issue of Osawatomie: the Weather Underground newspaper.

And it outlines a strategy of “working from the inside” to radicalize America and bring about a socialist revolution.

If that sounds familiar, I’m sure it’s just a coincidence. Or your imagination. Or maybe you’re a racist.

Zomblog has obtained an extremely rare copy of the first issue of Osawatomie, a newspaper published by the Weather Underground in 1975. Noteworthy passages are reproduced below, along with exact transcriptions. The full pages, with each passage in context in high resolution, are found at the bottom of this post.

Much of Osawatomie, which was written at a time when the Dohrn-Ayers wing of the Weather Underground was transitioning from terrorism to “working from the inside” for revolution, concerns itself with the need to encourage “organizers” who will work in “communities” and use “audacity” to bring about “socialism” in America.

Don’t believe me? Read the quotes for yourself, and see them in context on the full pages below.
