What happens when the revolution needs funding—and a Brink’s truck rolls through town? In 1981, a crew of Black liberation soldiers and white radical allies said bet, and pulled off one of the wildest armored car heists in U.S. history.
They weren’t in it for the Lambos. They were in it for the movement. But when $1.6 million goes missing, cops end up dead, and the FBI gets loud? Let’s just say the aftermath is anything but lowkey.
We’re diving deep into the stick-up that shook the suburbs—unpacking the politics, the people, and the price of pushing back against the system.
If you love your true crime with a little side-eye, a little history, and a lotta Black perspective—you’re in the right place.
