Damn beautiful afro hairdos. Where is it now. The blacks seem to have gone 'straight' - going with the mainstream. The music has degenerated as well with all that 'booty' crap. Where is the self-respect of the beautiful black women of the past? I bemoan it's loss - even though, ethnically, i'm supposed to be indian. It matters not. I've learnt much from my perspectival fathers such as Malcolm X, Martin Luther King........
The old Black Panther Party had a mission.The new Black Panther Party with that Malik Shabazz and Nuzinga are ignorant.They make fools of themselves on TV with their hate and non sense.If black people want to be respected in this country,having brothers like this talk for us will not get it done.
i jus like the music. oh by the way im black but from new zealand so technically im brown, we all the same anyway. i hate rasisim, that shit is in the past.
When the 2nd revolution starts, what are all you proud "panthers" going to do when whitey gets pissed and starts cleaning the country of blacks, browns, and jews? its comming!
I can't help but look at this beautiful video and ask myself the question: What the hell happened!!! I know what happened but this is the most beautiful ideal demonstration of our people in this nation that I have ever seen we have to get that organization and unity back folks!!! Black Power!!!! Global African Supremacy!!!!
Much respect to those who fought from their heart for my rights. Thank you!!!! It would be nice for brothers and sisters to come together and learn form history so we can move forward as one. PLEASE brothers and sisters take an Afro Amer class and learned about our history. Much love to all and keep ur head up
Now look at Oakland, the government attacked the panthers, and flood the neighborhood, with dopes and guns. They feared the Black Panther more than anything. They are still oppressing, Black people to keep them from ever wakening up like they did at this moment. BP!!!!!
The Black Panthers were just so courageous, because they knew how to uplift those wo less unfortunate.
They were not only about combating injustice, capitalism, corruption, murders, drugs, prositution etc. They were about unity the oppressed and non-Europeans across the world.
The Black Panthers are heroes and they will never be forgotten.
I think we got to unite....something is brewing in the air, and I'm afraid black and brown wont know what is going to hit them....we got to unit. Is there a black and brown unite website ? anyone?
I'll admit, I'm white. But when we started talking about the Black Panther Party and the 1960's in my history class and I found it amazing. I thought it was really liberating and cool that they stood up for their rights against a country that treated them as lesser people. Some would say that they fought against 'my people,' but I would never consider an ignorant Klan member one of my people, they're scum. There for, I have much respect for the Black Panther Party.
If you read Bobby Seale's Sieze The Time, it explains alot about the misconceptions of the BPP. That is a good piece of work to know to use against thoose allegations.
Black Panthers wanted equal right for black people by any means necessary and black people did so much to fight for them rights so now we have the Black Panthers that were there to fight back and put their life on the line for freedom and independence.. some people try to compare black panthers with the KKK but they are difference way different no comparison
That comparison keeps coming up. Pure ignorance. It's the difference between fighting for equality and fighting to maintain hegemony, greed and hatred.
Comrade Sundiat Acoli (Clark Edward Squire #39794-066) is up for parole in Feb of 2010. He was with Assata Shakur on the night of the infamous shooting on the New Jersey turnpike. Please send letters to the parole board asking to grant him parole as he has been in jail for 36 years half his life and has long ago met the conditions for release
I love learning about the Black Panthers but is so sad that we the youth of OAKLAND don't unit and fight together, we still have police brutality look what happend to OSCAR GRANT?
In solidarity with my black and colored brothers and sisters
These were the real panthers... Huey and Bobby were truly the smartest people on the earth at that time... its just too bad that the PIGS destroyed them using unlawful and illegal means... *raises fist*
We believe that the federal government is responsible and obligated to give every person employment or a guaranteed income. We believe that if the American businessmen will not give full employment, then the technology and means of production should be taken from the businessmen and placed in the community so that the people of the community can organize and employ all of its people and give a high standard of living."
if someone is willing to work & not sit on their ass, they will have NO problem getting a job, supporting themselves & their family-when too many sit back & wait on handouts it strains everyone, & the economy-you can only support so many who are not contributing, regardless of color or race
I think everyone is looking at this the wrong way. Almost everyone who has commented has looked at this like we should all be separated. That's not the right way. We need to be together, equal, not looking at each other like we're different, like we don't have personality's. Humans shouldn't be called a black man, they should be called a man who is black. We're putting races in front of our humanity. That will not create equality.
i think back then us black people was more for helping each other out and being there for each other. today alot of us is all about ourselfs and killing each other come on black people lets stop killing each other and love one another. I love all my black people. I am proud to be black if i could come back to life another race i will still come back black.
excellent work compas, hasta la victoria siempre, malcom X vive y la lucha sigue, time to get ready, I'm predicting the empire collapse and restructuring of society within the next 17 years, nonetheless people and society can always get better or always get worse....fight the power....
People now days dont represent like they used to in the seventies and stuff i wish i was born then i hate the way girls straighten their hair its like they just need to bring back the fros and the pics with fist so we can say that we are still black and we are still proud
i like the first song in the video. i was wondering what they say .the kids that are singing along. i think they say im black and proud!!yay! i like this video a lot!
i am glad i did a prject on this. i actually got a shirt and i designed it with a black panther in the middle and around it , it says we want power. i love my new shirt. this party has inspired me.i am also glad that not only did african americans join the party but non african americans too. the reason i am not saying black is because i dont like to all african americans that.but then again i have friends of that color and they are not african american.hmm:)i love this video good footage!!!!!!
"WE WANT FREEDOM. WE WANT POWER TO DETERMINE THE DESTINY OF OUR BLACK AND OPPRESSED COMMUNITIES.
We believe that Black and oppressed people will not be free until we are able to determine our destinies in our own communities ourselves, by fully controlling all the institutions which exist in our communities."
when i was growing my fro for my dreads, a lot of older people gave me props. it made me feel good that the older generation saw a young dude so nosatalgic
My brother was the ambulance driver at the oakland Police vs Black panther shootout. His picture showed up on the Associated Press front page. Bullets were whizzing and darting by his body. He picked up one downed officer and put him on the stretcher. He took off his helmet and put it on his head. Probably the instincts from Vietnam taught him that.

These brothers and sisters put their lives on the line for us and we shouldn't forget them.
Brother Huey P. Newton and Brother Bobby Seale were the main architects of the Black Panthers in late sixties.
Despite these devils oppressed us, the Panthers didn't leave us in vain.

The Black Panthers were about fighting for the freedom of Africans in America and oppressed people of the world.
They mixed their ideas of independent amongst Africans to intergration with others across the world.

It lights the dark of this prison cell,

It is 'the undauntable thought', my friend,
