Your Imaginary Friend
Reviewed 2002-04-17
Spoken documentary’esque soundtrack chronicling the prison activism of George Jackson in California (first half) as well as the Attica prison uprising/takeover that ended in massacre. If you don’t know about this stuff, esp Attica, you should and this is a perfect crash course.

Notables: 2) David Johnson- soledad bros 5) Ruchell Magee et al – slavery 10) James Baldwin to the rescue- “patriotism” Attica: 15-20 are a must, if you run through 23 pot down when you hear jazz music or sit through production credits
