Title: Blood in my eye
First published: 1972
Description: Published in 1972, “Blood In My Eye” is a collection of writings by George Jackson, a political prisoner and a Black freedom fighter. He finished the writings shortly before prison guards murdered him in August 1971. George had been convicted over a decade prior at age 18 — taking $70 from a gas station resulted in a conviction with an indeterminate sentence - one year to life. 

Blood in My Eye considers more broadly questions of armed struggle, communism, and Black revolutionary thought, or put simply, “it is a book about taking the revolution that George worked and died for inside prison out into society at large.”
