  • The black panther political party was a serious threat to the established elite.

    Hence they used the police state to murder the leaders.

    By murdering the leaders of the movement, along with flooding the black neighborhoods with cheap and addictive drugs (crack), the black panther party was destroyed and ended up as a small footnote in American history.

    The truth is, the Black Panther Party was one of the greatest political movements in American history.

  • he was dynomite! and he came where i'am from the westside of chicago. they had to get rid of him caus ehe was a mother fucker. he would have put us as black's in a whole u light. he was to smart to be so young.

  • Thats my hero! I cant belive he was only 21 im 22

  • He was only 21. WoW.

  • He was only 21 years old. Wow.

  • I'm very proud of these men and women standing up for their rights! It almost makes me cry, seeing the sacrifice, the passion and the love they had for their people. But sadly I don't see this uplifting and honourable state of mind any more. Nowadays it's the pimp, the gangster, the rapper who they look up to and they only have money on their mind! Deaf and blind.
