    THANK YOU FOR THIS DOCUMENTARY! So many good memories! Late 60's early 70's I was a white guy living below Broadway in Oakland, neighborhood about 80% black. I wasn't a political activist but was politically aware (pretty easy to do during that area with political activists and so-called "underground press" being generous with information that contradicted the mainstream narrative). I knew what the Black Panthers were, and it was a breath of fresh air. I knew what the Oakland cops and the Sheriff Madigan's thugs were, too. You didn't have to be black to grasp the fact they were the enemy of the very people who were paying their wages. After all, oppressors want to make sure that you understand that's exactly what they are. No secret. I used to walk right past the front door of Panther HQ on the way to the Shattuck bus stop. Only thing I was worried about, is what if the Pigs decided that was the moment they were going to blow Panther HQ to kingdom come in a hailstorm of bullets, and I was the guy on the sidewalk. The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, a well-regulated militia being necessary for the security of a free State. That idea didn't fall out of the sky, it was how things were done in an age where the modern concept of a municipal police force was almost nonexistent. If there was a problem that required civil armed intervention, the sheriff deputized citizens to take care of it. The Second Amendment said nothing about the specifics of the custom of the sheriff deputizing citizens because the Constitution came hot on the heels of the Revolutionary War and the Declaration of Independence. The sheriff is an agent of the Crown. And the new American nation was mostly rural with government nearly absent in many areas. So people did things for themselves. That's how I viewed the Black Panthers, and still do. And it was so much more than just a well-regulated militia. It was deeply involved in actually DOING good in the community, and they didn't ask what color your skin was to be a beneficiary of what they were doing. I often wonder where on earth did vision and leadership like that come from. To say "Merrritt College" doesn't really answer the question. I know of nothing like it either before or since. There were several things that contributed to the possibility of it happening. First, the Vietnam War opened people's eyes to the fact that the USA government wasn't really about promoting democracy and making the world a better place. It was killing for profit and lying about everything. .........Then there was the ongoing Civil Rights movement which opened many peoples' eyes to the injustice of segregation. There was a synergy between the anti-Vietnam War movement and the Civil Rights movement, a recognition that there's ruling class and they're amoral sociopaths who oppress because, well, that's what they do. And in the Bay Area, San Francisco being an international port was a long-standing ethnic melting pot where no matter who you were, you knew personally people of other races. By that time, some black folks who'd been in the Army had gone to college on the GI Bill and there were black folks in professional including administrative positions. And don't underestimate the power of music. Rock & Roll didn't fall out of the sky. It began as "race music" that white kids heard on the radio, and liked it. And what's its very foundation? the Blues. A musical form invented by black folks in the USA probably in Texas logging camps after the Civil War. It did not come from Africa. And it's so catchy that once you've heard it about 3 times, from then on out you know it. And yet there's so much possibility built into that series of chord changes, that the variety is infinite, it's a door into a different world of music. ........In the arts, nothing substitutes for talent, and in the postwar period popular music was a mix of black and white. The place and the time were right for something like the Black Panthers to happen, if something like that could happen. And somehow it did. ADDENDUM more on how the ruling class oppresses because "that's what they do", and skin color is often a just smokescreen for how they do it. The South was ruled by white politicians who enforced segregation and thumped Bibles. So whites voted for them. What they never understood, was that it was the oldest trick in the con man's arsenal-- misdirection. The South was and still is impoverished because white politicians were and still are ripping off the very people who voted them into office. The Bible Belt is a specific piece of geography in the USA. That same piece of geography is the poverty belt, the prison belt, the "education is bad" belt, the maternal death rate higher than any developed nation belt, the "cops are city hall's thugs" ["law and order, and the badge is law"]" belt, the list goes on and on. It's all cut from the same cloth. After the end of legal segregation, the whole thing morphed into "the Christian Right". One of the first things I discovered in life as a little kid, was that the adult world is governed by delusion. So I paid attention and asked difficult questions. It took me most of a lifetime to understand how and why the world is governed by delusion. However I knew from the time I first discovered it what the main ingredient was: adults will pay to be lied to. So of course there are people who make a living by telling people the lies they want to hear. The people get lied to, and they're happy they got their money's worth. That's how rule by delusion is done in plain view and people still don't understand what's being done to them and how.

    I too was born in the same year. I remember getting the lunch meals in the city of Newark, NJ. Thank goodness for the movement, because so many people benefited from the meals provided to the community. I’m in the south of Georgia now. I would love to see a revival here. Some of us have forgotten. Some of us have fallen asleep. The drugs, the alcohol, the foods, the sex, the technology is being used to keep our children focus on things that don’t matter. The adults are losing ground and we need to focus on getting the priorities straight, or else all hell is going to break loose. Watching this video is a wake-up call to the nation and to the world. Don’t let history repeat itself. 😢

    djtjtoo 72 All of the people you named are great men (especially Kwame Ture ...formerly known as Stokely Carmichael from Trinidad). But it doesn’t change the fact that the Black Panther Party was founded in Oakland, CA, in 1966 by Huey Newton and Bobby Seale. I could pull up an endless number of sources that proves this. But here’s just a few .... en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Panther_Party , which states: “The Black Panther Party (BPP), originally the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, was a revolutionary socialist political organization founded by Marxist college students Bobby Seale (Chairman) and Huey Newton (Minister of Defense) in October 1966 in Oakland, California.” www.britannica.com/topic/Black-Panther-Party nmaahc.si.edu/blog-post/black-panther-party-challenging-police-and-promoting-social-change www.blackpast.org/african-american-history/black-panther-party/ Like I said earlier, I could easily post 20 or 30 more sources at the drop of a hat. This is well known history, that the group was organized and founded out of Oakland in the 1960s. There is no debating that! Let’s cherish the history of these intelligent and fearless brothers and sisters ........... not rewrite it!
