Uncommon poster featuring part of a passage from George Jackson's autobiography, Soledad Brother ("Tuesday, March 24, 1970 (evening)"), and which Angela Y. Davis, in her eulogy 1971 for Jackson, called his epitaph. The full text of the poster reads: "Hurl me into the next existence. The descent into hell won't turn me. I'll crawl back to dog his trail forever. I'm part of the righteous people who anger slowly but rage undammed [sic]. We'll gather at his door in such a number that the rumbling of our feet will make the earth tremble." Interestingly, the poster leaves out a line, which in the book falls between "dog his trail forever" and "I'm part of the righteous people": "They won't defeat my revenge, never, never."
