High-Energy Scattering. Berkeley Commune, Up Against the Wall/Motherfucker Flier. No publisher, place or date. Presumed Berkeley Commune, UAWM, publishers, Berkeley ca 1968. Single sheet. 8 ½ by 11 inches. Printed on both sides. Photomechanically reproduced. A few small illustrations on one side, with a poem-like piece on the other. A flier printing a manifesto style piece by the Berkeley Commune and Up Against the Wall/Motherfucker. Calling free speech and free assembly "bull-shit issues," the paper declares that "we are fighting for our lives-for free streets on which we can live the life-style we create as an alternative to the amerikan way of death." The reverse contains a poem styled piece "Diversionary Games. A Call for Revolutionary Olympics," that outlines militant engagement actions in general terms. UAWM was formed in New York, employing Situationist and anarchist tactics to bring attention to the oppressive powers and systems in the United States. The group was loosely affiliated, with several core members, and in this instance it is not known how the Berkeley Commune and UAWM were connected, although it is possible that members of UAWM who left New York due to legal pressures, etc., gathered in Berkeley. GOOD condition. Horizontal and vertical fold creases present. Minor toning and wrinkling. Title slightly cropped at the top edge, most likely due to the printing process.
