Editing Seattle Liberation Front (section)

==Affiliation with Weather Underground==
The relationship between the [[Weather Underground]] and the Seattle Liberation Front remains somewhat ambiguous. Both groups shared many of the same political viewpoints, where they participated in protests and demonstrations, and there was overlap in membership.<ref>[http://content.lib.washington.edu/protestsweb/index.html University of Washington Libraries Digital Collections- Vietnam War Era Ephemera] "Protest UW affiliation with BYU" and "Off BYU"</ref> The violent, confrontational style of protest at events sponsored by SLF was identical with that of the SDS Weatherman faction before the latter went underground at the end of 1969.  There were no official ties between the Seattle Liberation Front and the [[Weather Underground]]. [[Chip Marshall]] was one of the leading members of the Seattle Liberation Front. In an interview with Time magazine in 1980, Marshall commented on the takeover of the SDS by [[Weather Underground|Weatherman]], a violent radical left faction. He said Weatherman had established cultural standards to which members were to adhere. Marshall did not agree with destroying monogamy, cutting family ties, and devaluing personal relationships.<ref name="time.com">{{Cite magazine|last=Aikman|first=David|date=1980-04-14|title=In Seattle: Up from Revolution|language=en-US|magazine=Time|url=https://content.time.com/time/subscriber/article/0,33009,923945,00.html|access-date=2021-06-30|issn=0040-781X}}</ref> SLF founder [[Michael Lerner (rabbi)|Michael Lerner]] was never known to be affiliated with the Weather Underground or to endorse its strategy of bombing and arson.
