One booklet dated approximately 1979 following Dan White's sentencing for voluntary manslaughter against Harvey Milk and George Moscone. Cover image is of a police car enflamed detailing the events of the "White Night" riots. The purpose of this document was to raise money to pay the bail of people arrested the night of the riots and to raise awareness of Dan White's sentence. "These ultra-right, racist, and homophobic politics translate into a grossly unequal law enforcement pattern as shown by the continued oppression of the poorer districts of San Francisco."
