Rags and Bones

The Angry Brigade, the British urban guerrilla group of the 1970s, emerged in May 1970 with the discovery of a bomb in the high security Paddington Green Police Station; police claim its roots go back to the US Embassy machine-gunning in 1967.The Angry Brigade’s members were anarchists and other libertarian socialists.

Scottish anarchist Stuart Christie, who introduces this documentary and was involved in the Angry Brigade, had previously been imprisoned for taking part in an attempt on Spanish dictator Fransisco Franco’s life. He remains active in the anarchist movement today.
