RATF: the story of the first integrated guerrilla unit
The leading members of the Weather Underground collaborated ideas and published their manifesto: "Prairie Fire: The Politics of Revolutionary Anti-Imperialism." The manifesto’s influence initiated the formation of the 'Prairie Fire Organizing Committee' in several American cities. Hundreds of above-ground activists helped further the new political vision of the Weather Underground. In the late 1970s, the Weatherman group further split into two factions — the "May 19 Coalition" and the "Prairie Fire Collective". The Prairie Fire Collective favored coming out of hiding, with members facing the criminal charges against them, while the May 19 Coalition continued to violently attack US institutions. u.net wrote the history of those members and their formation, the REVOLUTIONARY ARMED TASK FORCE , including interviews with Marilyn Buck, Laura Whitehorne and David Gilbert.
