Poster for an event held at Finn Hall in Berkeley, "present[ing] the first in a series of political investigations into the significance of George Jackson's life and the causes of his death." The lineup included Willie Tate, one of the San Quentin Six, as well as drama and prison poetry, a filmed interview with Georgia Jackson, and testimony from the Tribunal Commissions on the "assassination of George Jackson, prison struggles, juvenile justice, and alternative systems of justice."
Per an article in Crime and Social Justice, No. 4 (fall-winter 1975), "The Struggle Inside," the George Jackson Tribunal "was created in 1975 to investigate the causes of George Jackson's assassination on August 21, 1971, and to generate support for the San Quentin Six currently on trial in Marin County, California. The Tribunal is working to educate people about the broader significance of the Six's trial, to raise consciousness about the class basis of the prison system, and to expose how prisons attempt to legitimate and reproduce institutional racism."
