On October 23, 1981, Thai Jones, no older than four, looked on helplessly as his parents were taken away from their home. Jeffrey Jones and Eleanor Raskin were active members in the Weather Underground—a prominent far-left militant organization of the 1970s. That cold fall day, they became the targets of a raid carried out by FBI agents, who forced their way into the Jones’ apartment in the Bronx. Law enforcement arrested them as part of an investigation into Weathermen-related actions in the past decade. His parents had eluded police capture for 11 long years.
