Patrick, you probably know that Tupac was the son of Afeni Shakur, a well-known political activist and Black Panther of the Sixties and Seventies, and his stepfather was Mutulu Shakur, who was accused of masterminding the famous Brinks truck robbery and dual murder of 1981 near Tarrytown, NY. That act was regarded as the last gasp of the SDS "Weathermen" faction, and resulted in the arrest and conviction of famous radical Kathy Boudin, who was finally released from prison last year.
