WHAT YOU NEVER KNEW ABOUT THE ATTICA PRISON REBELLION
Manage episode 302137394 series 2437099
It has been 50 years since the Attica Prison Rebellion, one of the most famous and bloodiest prison uprisings in America's history. New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller, who refused to meet with the prisoners during the rebellion, stated that the prisoners "carried out the cold-blooded killings they had threatened from the outset." The deaths of only one of the officers and three of the inmates were actually attributed to the prisoners. New York Times writer Fred Ferretti said the rebellion concluded in "mass deaths that four days of taut negotiations had sought to avert."
