Description
An original 1974 issue of RESIST, A Call To Resist Illegitimate Authority — the newsletter of the anti-war organization RESIST founded in Boston in 1966.
Rojas, Alfredo, et al. RESIST, A Call To Resist Illegitimate Authority Newsletter #83. Cambridge, MA. 20 July 1974.
An issue of the eponymous newsletter from the anti-war, anti-imperialist organization, RESIST founded in Boston in 1966 by members including Noam Chomsky among others. The subsequent publication of the collective’s “A Call To Resist Illegitimate Authority” in 1967, signed by Allen Ginsberg, Mitchell Goodman, and Norman Mailer helped lead to that year’s March on the Pentagon in protest of the Vietnam War as well as the subsequent prosecution of the “Boston Five”, all members of RESIST, for aiding draft avoidance.
This issue of RESIST A Call To Resist Illegitimate Authority includes coverage of the progress of RESIST grantees the Labor-Community Alliance of Hawaii and the Somerville Women’s Health Project as well as a jail house profile of Rafael “Fafa” Taveras of the Marxist-Leninist Dominican Popular Movement (MPD) following his imprisonment for his purported role in the 1970 kidnapping of US Air Force Colonel Donald Crowley, originally published in the Tricontinental News Service.
8pp, unbound folio. Evidence of past triple fold. Toning toward edges. Some creasing to spine. Corners bumped. Very good.
