The Weather Underground re-examines the history of the infamous radical
organization whose goal was the violent overthrow of the United States
government. This group of several hundred young, white, and mostly
middle-class, militants battled police in the streets, broke Timothy Leary
out of prison, and were responsible for over two dozen bombings including
the US Capital. Evading one of the largest manhunts in US history, they
lived underground for nearly a decade.
