	99 books in a prisoners' cell hold the key to the gates of hell 99 books so much to learn the light of justice still may burn 99 books we still can read a body shackled, a spirit freed 99 books and a bullet in the head but thought escapes a hail of lead The truth is always writ in blood That turns the prison walls to mud And for the price paid to the night Comes the dawn's enduring light George Jackson It is right to rebel George Jackson And 99 books were in his cell 99 books in a prisoner's cell the end of slavery did foretell 99 books and a mind on fire electrified the prison wire 99 books of thunder roared From Soledad to Attica 99 book and a bullet in the brain the killers bore the mark of cain «We are not acting individually inside the prisons here, we're all together. And we have perfect discipline and we have rank and file. The rank and file is necessary, you'll never get anywhere without it and I think that failure of the last 50 years, the failures that allowed fascism to emerge right out in front was, well, we can attribute it to a lack of discipline and lack of the ability to create a policy out a thousand conflicting opinions and subjective interpretations of what is. We have to have a chairman. We have to have a central figure who's capable of seeing the real or distinguishing the real from the apparent.» - George Jackson, September 23, 1941 – August 21, 1971
