The women of May 19th bombed the U.S. Capitol and plotted Henry Kissinger’s murder. But they’ve been long forgotten.

, the daughter of a retired theatrical producer and a kindly dentist who treated poor patients in Spanish Harlem, attended a progressive private school on the Upper West Side. Political activism came early—at age 11 she began attending civil rights and anti-war demonstrations with her parents. By 14 she was a member of the High School Student Union, the youth wing of SDS. A solid student, she enrolled at Barnard College in 1972.

On the evening of May 18, 1979, his stumps frantically working a pair of bolt cutters reportedly smuggled in by his lawyer, Morales managed to snip the thin wire covering a window and lower himself several stories using a rope made of Ace bandages. The May 19th women were waiting on the sidewalk below. Years later, the government of Fidel Castro granted him political asylum, and he remains in Cuba to this day.

But they hadn’t given up on revolutionary anti-imperialism—far from it. Beginning in January 1983, and using a variety of ferocious sounding noms de guerre intended to throw off investigators, May 19th bombed a string of targets: an FBI office on Staten Island, the National War College at Fort McNair in Washington, the officers club and a computer center at the Washington Navy Yard.

By the fall of 1984, their luck began to run out. On November 29, Rosenberg and one of the group’s few male members, Timothy Blunk, were arrested at a Cherry Hill, New Jersey, storage facility after a suspicious night manager called the police. Rosenberg and Blunk were moving Hercules Unigel Tamptite, a high explosive, into a U-Haul trailer.
