It was formed in 1969 by members of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) following internal ideological struggle within SDS. Aligning itself with the anti-war movement and supporting Third World liberation struggles, the WUO staged a campaign of numerous bombings and other direct actions from the late 196s to mid-1970s, in solidarity with liberation struggles in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and in the United States. The organization published numerous pamphlets, communiques, and periodicals and a book Prairie Fire: the Politics of Revolutionary Anti-Imperialism. The organization disbanded in 1976. In addition to the book, the collection includes monographs from the WUO, communiques, and all issues of the periodical Osawatomie."State Department bombing by Weatherman Undergroundmore...less..."hearing before the Subcommittee to Investigate the Administration of the Internal Security Act and Other Internal Security Laws of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, Ninety-fourth Congress, first session, January 31, 1975"The Weather Underground: A Look Back at the Antiwar Activists Who Met Violence with Violencemore...less..."A conversation with Weather Underground co-founder Mark Rudd on why he went underground for 7 years and has since renounced violence.
