TO THE MAN-CHILD,

Tall, evil, graceful, brighteyed, black man-child-Jonathan Peter Jackson- who died on August 7th 1970, courage in one hand, assault rifle in the other; my brother, comrade, friend- the true revolutionary, the black communist guerilla in the highest state of development, he died on the trigger, scourage of the unrighteous, soldier of the people; to this terrible man-child and his wonderful mother Georgia Bea, to Angela Y Davis, my tender experience, I dedicate this collection of letters; to the destruction of their enemies I dedicate my life.

GEORGE JACKSON
