What is the limit of activism? When you protest against an unjust war and progress seems impossible, what will you do to end the Vietnam War? What will you do to end racism against Black people in the US? For some activists like those in the Students for a Democratic Society, they believed that the only option to go underground and strike back at the American Government as the Weather Underground.

Acting as one of the least effective armed radicals in American history, the Weather Underground are treated in many was as a historical joke. Former members like Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn can pretend to have legitimacy, but were they really so innocent? Was the only victim of their spree of attacks Dustin Hoffman's Greenwich Village row house and a series of government toilets? Was there not a more violent goal here?

Representing the far end of the anti-war movement, the Weather Underground went off the deep end and became terrorists - among the most known in the 60's and 70's.
