August 21, 1971 was the deadliest day in San Quentin history, and it’s still a painful topic, both inside the prison and out. At the center of the story was a Black revolutionary named George Jackson. Who was he, and what makes him so controversial, even today?
As always, big thanks to Lt. Sam Robinson and Acting Warden Ron Broomfield for their support of the show.
