Part two of our discussion of Tribal Thumb, the obscure 1970s radical group in the Bay Area with eerie parallels to the Manson Family & the SLA. Matt and Matt from Left in the Bay join us to talk about the radical energy percolating through California in the 1970s and the twists and turns of the Symbionese Liberation Army saga.

Clip at start from Patty Hearst (1988) directed by Paul Schrader

This makes me recall the theory of the "encapsulated gang" , the idea that federal authorities would have a degree of total access and influence over a radical group (either through the leader or several members) and use that access to map the underground as the group moved around and acted.
