Weather Underground, The

Aroview: A stimulating, incisive look back at the angry workings of "The Weathermen", a radical splinter faction of the protest movement who were responsible for dozens of state-targeted bombings in the early 1970s.

A unique history lesson that contrasts the mindsets of those involved in the radicalism of the time with a maturer perspective reflected in hindsight, this has an uncanny relevance in the post-9/11 era that alarmingly cautions how idealism can easily devolve into terrorism.
