	Weatherman (organization) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Weatherman, also known as the Weather Underground Organization, and colloquially as the Weathermen, was a U.S. Radical Left organization consisting of splintered-off members and leaders of the Students for a Democratic Society.
		The group referred to itself as a "revolutionary organization of communist women and men." Their stated purpose was to carry out a series of militant actions to achieve the revolutionary overthrow of the Government of the United States, and of capitalism as a whole.
		Originally, the Weathermen were part of the Revolutionary Youth Movement within the Students for a Democratic Society.

		The Weathermen was a political faction elected in 1968 to lead the radical group Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).
		The Weathermen's first public demonstration was the "Days of Rage," an October 1969 protest in Chicago timed to coincide with the trials of the Chicago 7, a group of leftists led by Tom Hayden, who conspired to create a riot at the Democratic Party nominating convention the previous year.
		The Weathermen's rally was an attempt to glorify the anarchist movement.

		The Weathermen philosophy was entirely based on one very compelling proposition: If you sit back and allow bad things to happen without so much as moving a finger, then you are as guilty as those who perpetrate the evil in question.
		For the Weathermen, evil was not confined to those who pull the trigger; evil was a state of mind that did not require action at all.
		The Weathermen obviously thought they had the moral upper hand in their ventures, for after all, they were terrorizing Americans for a good cause (or so they reasoned).

		The Weathermen's 1969 melee in Chicago, billed "The Days of Rage," was meant to inspire working-class youth to commit similarly gratuitous acts, and to prove the group's revolutionary macho to the Black Panthers.
		Though the Weathermen's organization had killed no one but themselves, other groups inspired by their brand of violent radicalism killed and wounded a not insignificant number of innocent people.
		When Weathermen dispersed, she joined the grandly named "Black Liberation Army," a tiny group of thugs and radicals that included Mutulu "Doc" Shakur (stepfather of rapper Tupac Shakur), which helped to plan prison escapes and bank robberies, including the ill-fated Brinks robbery that led to her arrest in 1981.

	The Weathermen Underground -- "You don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows." -Bob Dylan
		The Weathermen were a group of extreme left-wing radicals that wrecked havoc upon the United States in the late sixties and early seventies.
		The Weathermen believed that the whole ordeal was premeditated and the cops knew they were to go in and kill Hampton.
		Fatefully on March 8 1970, three members of the Weathermen Underground were killed in an explosion in James Wilkerson's (his daughter Kathy Wilkerson was a member of the "Underground" and allowed fellow members to use her father's home to make the bomb) home in Greenwich Village, NY while they were trying to make a bomb.

	Weathermen - dKosopedia
		The Weathermen, also known as the Weather Underground Organization, was a US-based, self-described "revolutionary organization of communist men and women" formed by members of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), splintering that organization in the process.
		The Weathermen were motivated by a belief that they needed to "bring the war home", that Americans needed to experience for themselves the violence of the Vietnam War in order to force revolutionary change at home.
		The name 'Weathermen' is taken from the Bob Dylan song "Subterranean Homesick Blues", which advises that 'you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows'.

	St. James Encyclopedia of Pop Culture: The Weathermen
		The Weathermen believed that working-class white youths offered the best prospects for new members--these young people were already alienated from the system, it was reasoned, and would thus be eager recruits for the revolution.
		The Weathermen wanted to protest the trial and also take advantage of the presence of the national news media, which would be covering the proceedings.
		Despite their reputation, as well as their violent-sounding rhetoric, the Weathermen were always careful to call in a bomb threat at least an hour before their bombs were timed to detonate.

		That is, the bombings carried out by the Weathermen were not against individuals, and in fact, I believe that the only people ever killed by Weathermen bombings were their own due to mistakes.
		To hear the government describe Weathermen activities, you would believe that they were the worst kind of terrorists, but this was not the case.
		Had you seen a bottle and chain fight between weathermen and pl-ers, and the effects on those around, and the numerous other instances I could dredge up, you might have a somewhat different view of their impact.

		The Weathermen leadership for this regional center is discussing how to organize things from now on while most people are crashing in the main room, which is a windowless volleyball court of the theological seminary where we're staying.
		The Weathermen believe, after all, that there can be no spectators in the revolution-you're either part of it, or you are automatically acting against it.
		The first thing the Weathermen have going against them, the main thing, the only thing that can seem really important, is the way their actions wipe out the self.

	Weathermen revisited
		After that, the Weathermen went underground for a decade, eluding the FBI, helping acid-guru Timothy Leary escape from prison and engaging in a series of bombings of police stations, the Pentagon, the U.S. Capitol, and army bases.
		But by the end of the 70s, sensing that their tactics and the movement itself were played out, they turned themselves in (though because of FBI malfeasance in their cases they did not go to prison).
		The film, though never endorsing their actions, is more sympathetic to the Weathermen and their grand intentions than I ever was.

		Interestingly, given the speed with which the media branded the Weathermen terrorists, none of the bombs, all of which were timed to explode at night when the buildings were empty, resulted in loss of life.
		Indeed, although Dohrn and her colleagues in the Weather Underground, as the group later became known, considered themselves the acme of revolutionary cool - their symbol was a rainbow shot through with a lightning bolt - it could be argued that the only people the Weather people succeeded in terrorising were themselves.
		Similarly, while Ayers argues in the film that it was the shock of the townhouse bombing that pulled the Weathermen back from the brink, elsewhere he has argued the opposite view.

	Right or wrong, weathermen get attention - By BUDDY STALL
		Several years ago, while delivering a talk on meteorology to a civic group, a New Orleans television weatherman was catching heavy flak from the audience on the inaccuracy of local weather forecasters.
		Today proof of New Orleanians’ continued interest in the weather lies in the fact that the city’s commercial TV stations devote valuable time throughout the summer during the daily news shows to report the weather, although it is basically the same report every day...
		These weathermen have been forced to use their creative ability to fill the allotted time with interesting facts not always pertaining to the weather at all.

	:: MVRemix: Album Reviews - The Weathermen - The Conspiracy Mix Vol. 1 ::
		As you can tell by the lineup, The Weathermen are no ordinary super group, as they posse a unique chemistry and flavor for a group with such a broad range of talent and variety.
		And while most of “The Conspiracy” mixtape is either hit or miss, the actual new studio recordings by the group end up as the sole highlight of the album.
		The RJD2 remix of “5 Left In The Clip” by The Weathermen, which was featured on The E.C. All-stars 3, is a nice addition to the album as RJ’s production never fails to come through.

		With that said, it's still 20 tracks deep and chock full of new Weathermen rhymes, which will do the trick for any fan of the supergroup.
		They were obviously going for commercialy successful tracks, but for the most part none of them fit with the battle rhymes the Weathermen members are spitting.
		Still, the studio tracks are solid, and I'm pumped for both the Weathermen LP and all of the individual projects slated in the near future.

	filmcritic.com Movie Review: The Weather Underground
		Besides helping to signal an end to the idealism of the 1960s, the event also put a crosshairs on the group, as far as the FBI was concerned, and sent them into hiding, where many would stay until as late as the 1980s.
		Throughout the early and mid-1970s, the Weathermen carried out a string of bombings of various establishment targets, which they insist in the film were rigorously designed not to kill anyone.
		It’s a painful documentary in many ways because even though the filmmakers are obviously sympathetic to the politics of the Weathermen, they can’t hide the fact that this was essentially a pretty useless little band.

	Memories of Weathermen explosion on W. 11th St.
		Cathy was a member of the antiwar revolutionary group the Weather Underground, which had evolved from the Students for a Democratic Society, and which believed, ironically, that the road to peace lay in acts of violence.
		She had brought in a gang of Weathermen — and Weatherwomen — and they had turned the townhouse into a bomb factory.
		I assured him that, while I had been a McCarthy Democrat in 1968, I had always thought Weathermen terror was harmful to the peace cause, and inane as well as immoral.
