The Magician's Elephant Will Lead Him to His Sister

Courtesy of The Freedom Archives 1972, 28 min. This extraordinary video is from a 16mm film “work print” made in 1971–1972, and includes interviews with George Jackson, Georgia Jackson (George and Jonathan Jackson’s mother) and Angela Davis, while she was still in the Marin County Courthouse Jail, before her acquittal. We have not been able to identify the other prisoners. As you will see, the film has no titles or other credits. The discovery of such amazing, previously unknown historic materials always leaves us thrilled and in awe, deepening our understanding of those times and affirming the mission of the Freedom Archives.

Perhaps the most amazing and groundbreaking quality about The Birdcage is how removed it is from both illness and insensitivity.

They don’t care how far the community has fallen so much as how high they can rebuild themselves.
