membershin on the Philadelohia Crime Commission. Foster's Sideman, Blackburn, is & CYA agent. As director of Education in Sast Africa, he worked to imolement teat vrograms agoinst Black neople there, and he trained other agents te carry them out so thet he could return to this country and intro- duce those same vrograms here. I feel a need to explain this again because I want to make it clear that the SLA was not indiscriminantly issuing death warrants for Foster, Blackburn or anyone else, but rather we were attacking the programs and proposel of which they were the initiators, supporters and first signers. Such an attack was the only INeans left oven to us to demand that the people's wishes be met, and that all such dangerous, genocidal programs be stopped. The government controlled media has made some referenc: to the effect that this action was carried out by White neonle made up in black face. Members of the SLA do not have to © make up in black face in order to defend the Black community, Since the SLA is a federation formed in the style of a revolr- . tionary united nations whose commanding leadershin 1s cor- posed of representatives of the Black, Brown, Yellow, Red and white communities. As revolutionaries we would never Gisguise ourselves by race because we would never deliber-~ ately act in a manner that would bring further police ‘ves- tigation onto any one race of peoples. But I would lize te ask -- since when does one have to be Bleck in order to“care about the murder of 14 year old Tyrone Guyton by political Police state death squads; since when does one have to be White in order to feel for the starving children in Appalachia; Since when does one have to be Asian in order to care about the napalming of children in Vietnam; since when does one. have to be Brown in order to fight against the mess sleughters being conducted by the military junta in Chile???? Since whent??? Not since we have come to realize that we are all one in struggle. Iam e member of the Symbionese Liberation Army infor~ mation/intelligence unit, and that means thet my responsi- bility is to aid the combat units with information and keep myself armed at all times. I am in a rece to learn how to fight because T am in a race to survive. SLA information/ intelligence units have a military/political alltance with SLA combat units. ‘Yhat that means is that information units totally support armed struggle. All members of the SLA understand that politics are inseparable from strusgle ; in fact politics have no meaning without armed combat and information units to give voliticsa a purpose.
