Adapted from George Jackson's own prison letters and other writings, this bio-pic is to be commended for shedding surprisingly sophisticated light on such a controversial cult figure.

Product Description:
Jailed for one year to life for stealing just 71 dollars, George Lester Jackson was an inmate activist who led one of most violent riots in San Quentin's history. BLACK AUGUST tells his fiery story, ending in bloodshed on the cataclysmic day in August that Jackson's brother took a courtroom hostage to protest his trial. Gary Dourdan (CSI) gives the revolutionary figure the spark of life.
