tests
to take but he still thought the palmprint was mine. On October
22YCaptain Moody visited me for yet another time. This time he
stated that I would be transferred to Calirornia Mens Colony,.
Bast Facility "if I would co-operate . He stated that he
was keeping his promise" and expected that I would keep mine".
I stated that I had made no promise but did indeed desire to
be removed from the adjustment center. On all of the occasions
that Captain Moody saw me he tried to get me to state that I92 - . '

In September 1970 I wrote to State senator Mervyn Dymally
asking him to help me get out of maximum security. Shortly
afterwards I was visited by Prank Powell, minority consultant
to Director of Corrections R.K. Procunier.. Mr. Powell stated
he had come because of Senator Dymally's inquiry to Mr.
Procunier. Mr. Powell told me that in his opinion I was either
involved in the January 16 inciden£.inv:lving the death of Officer
Mills or I knew who was. He made it clear that I would not be
released from maximum security unless I agreed to implicate the
defendants Jackson, Drumgo'and Clutchette. Mr. Powell came- . 0
on or'about September 14, 1970. On or about September 26,
Captain Moody came again and said that Mr. Powell had told him
I wished to see Captain Moody again. This was not true. I had
nothing of the sort to Mr. Powell. Captain Moody took me
the telephone room and talked to me for two hours. I am in
that I will never get out of maximum security. I am in
that if I state'that I am in fear or my life the officials
use that as an excuse to keep my locked up. I fear not from
inmates but from the authorities. I have described Mr. Powell's
visit in a letter to Senator nymally. ' __ ..

:1hesitate in doing anything to get out. He said selfishness in
prison was.the best policy -- that, after all, a man only hasrone
life to live and no one wants to spend that life in jail. He said
hell, Jackson or anybody would do anything to obtain their.
-liberty. He accused me of being brainwashed, confused and emo-
tional for thinking that they were out to kill me -- that if that
was the case, they would have never chosen me and given me the
opportunity to get out free. He said he had to go through a lot
of troublewith higher authorities, convincing them that I should
A ; . .Y . I-be granted a parole because my mother needs me, that is if
testified. Then, he went on to explain that if I refused, I
would never see the streets again and if I thought I have expe-
rienced a lot, that I was just beginning. He assured me a trans-
fer to either Chino, C.M.C.B. or Tehachipi right away'and then
I would go to trial, testify and before Christmas, I'll be home.
He said, in case I feared Jackson;might want to hurt me when he
got out, that I could be sent to Nicaragua {my land of birth!
with money and high recommendations. He said I'm not the only
one to be offered good things, that there are others. He went on
for a little while along the same lines. After he had finished,
I told him I didn't need his kind of freedom, I wasn't going to
testify and lie against anybody and to never confront me with
absurdities like that again. He said I spoke that way because I
was sure to beat the present case I was fighting in Sacramento,
along with 8 other brothers. He said I forgets who runs the
joints and who don't. He said I would pay for my stubborness.

the death of a Soledad Prison guard durin January, 1970. Charged.7C>with Jackson were who like b
Jackson were inmates of the California Department of Corrections.These three individuals subsequently became known h "SoledadBrothers." Self-admitted Communist Party member iscurrently being tried by California authorities for murder, kidnapingand conspiracy in connection with a 1970 attempt by Jackson'syounger brother to take hostages to exchange for freedom of the
"Soledad Brothers." During February, 1971, at the specific requestof the Civil Rights Division of the Department, a preliminary investi-gation was conducted due to complaints by these three individualsthat they had been deprived of certain rights in connection with
the aforementioned criminal charges.
George Lester Jackson was himself killed from a gunshotwound during an abortive prison break from San Quentin on 8/21/71.During October, 1971, at the specific request of the Department,which was brought about by several Congressional inquiries, a limitedinvestigation was conducted as to the cause of George Jackson's

By George L. Jackson
REVIEW BOOK
This book, which is George Lester Jacksonh last willand testament, presents his burning vision that the world has tobe reshaped, is dedicated to the black communist youth, and openlyadvocates an end to capitalism in the United States by armedrevolution and-violence. The publisher reportedly received thismanuscript less than a week before Jackson was killed attempting toescape from San Quentin. The author admits he is a communist, anextremist, and claims revolutionary acts carefully planned by blackscan overthrow our existing society. He recommends educating blackswith the idea of promoting the revolution, of infiltrating policedepartments, the military, prison staffs, Governmental agencies,and other selective places which can eventually provide assistanceto their cause. Emphasis is placed on forming a mobile secretblack guerrilla army, on the practical use of ambush attacks, onperfect disorder created by a number of disruptions and otherinternal problems and the always healthy spontaneous mass looting.He claims surprise attacks and quick withdrawal can create completechaos and bring about the complete revolution. The only form ofattack employed by guerrilla forces is the ambush, the surpriseattack, and there must never be any front lines or defending ofterritory. These various planned violent attacks should starttaking place in the heart of cities with the objective to change"law and order to perfect disorder" and replace the establishedculture with a black revolutionary one. The author indicates theplans to foment this revolution, to seek triumph over bourgeoiscapitalism will be led by the BPP and other trained urban guerrillaunits. He emphasizes the urban guerrilla can mingle with theenemy and remain invisible and invulnerable and that total
revolution is the only solution.

"Blood in My Eye"
By George L. Jackson
against capitalism. The FBI compiles and indexes almost allinformation on crime in the United States and of property crimes
in 1969, 28 percent occurred in the ghetto.
On Page 103 it is reported that during a 1971 preliminaryhearing a bailiff jabbed Jackson in the ribs and that subsequentlyJackson threw a karate blow to the bailiffs head. Jackson comented"I would hate to run into freaks who have Mike Hammer/J. Edgar
Hoover complexes without being armed."9
On Page ll9, in commenting about fascist conditions, hecompares the German SS Agents, Italian Black Shirts, and the FBI, ashaving crushed the vanguard elements which posed an internal threat.He claims after the threat is removed the ruling class goes on
making profits as usual.
On Pages 169-70 Jackson claims the ruling class in theUnited States is composed of one million people including theRockefellers, Vanderbilts, DuPonts, Ford and others and that theyuse their Ivy League universities and elite law schools for theiroffspring as training grounds for their corporate hirelings. Theyrule with iron precision through the military, the CentralIntelligence Agency, the FBI, private foundations and financial
institutions.
On Page l73 Jackson refers to the FBI as the hired goonsin our fascist country working to infiltrate and destroy any anti-
establishment vanguard movement.
On Page l85Jackson claims the Africans were the firstcommunists but that J. Edgar Hoover in one of his books called itnprimitive communism." %¢ n K &CM1 w New
