In September of 1971, 1,281 inmates at the Attica State Maximum Security Prison staged a rebellion and held control of the prison for 5 days. They were protesting rampant abuse and after days of negotiations, the State Police + National Guard stormed in. The events within the prison walls of Attica were chaotic, inspiring and heartbreaking. The uprising would help spark the modern Prisoner Rights Movement. Tune in to hear an amazing story of unity and resistance against all odds.
