In February 1974, the Symbionese Liberation Army, a left-wing radical group, kidnapped the 19-year-old daughter of media mogul William Randolph Hearst. The SLA claimed to represent “all oppressed people,” “self-determination,” and “human and constitutional rights.” It “requested” that Hearst show “good faith” by providing hundreds of millions of dollars in food aid to the poor. “The people are awaiting your gesture,” an SLA leader told Hearst. “We will accept a sincere effort on your part.”
