We'll hear part one of a two-part interview with Heather Ann Thompson, who has written the first definitive history of the 1971 Attica prison uprising, the state's savage response, and the prisoners' decades-long struggle for justice. Revolution Club members Travis Morales and Riley Ruiz, who have been at Standing Rock in North Dakota this past week. The heroic actions of the resisters at Standing Rock, in the face of escalating police attacks, armed company thugs, and government lies at all levels, have put a spotlight on how this country is founded on the genocide of native people and slavery.
