I believe it is a shame that some White people get upset that a group of people are simply demanding to be treated equal and fair. They hate to feel powerless and the BPP did that to them.

The black panther party was a group who just wanted to fight for there rights. There is nothing wrong with that, it just sheds a light on bad racism was and still is. you can be peaceful for so long until you have to start finding other ways to be heard, and thats what they did. It’s sad to see that many years later nothing has changed, whites and the police are still trying to stop us.
This was really hard to watch, the Black Panther Party fought so hard for their rights. They stood on their beliefs and refused to give up no matter how difficult it was.
The power that the Black Panther Party had in the African American community is what made them a major threat in society. That is why they raided their house the way that they did because they felt that if they took out Fred Hampton, then the Black Panther Party would become less of a threat. The system is so corrupt and evil and always will be!!
The power given to our police force should be stripped away especially after the way they make it a scene to treat their citizens poorly. One thing that this video makes very clear is that the notion of “follow the law” does not apply to everyone.
I completely agree with you on this on, or if stripped away sounds more harsh to anyone, then that power needs to be reviewed and big changes or new policies need to be implemented ASAP
The black panthers where trying to fight for our rights. We have been harrassed for so many years they were just tired of it and ready for a change and to put a stop to it .
The Party was really just fighting for our rights but of course the police and white people had to interfere with black movements like they always and continue to do
Unfortunately, this is just another example of racism and white people taking away the black people’s privileges. The black panthers were just fighting for their rights and they studied the laws. The fact that some of the black panthers members’ parents actually wanted the police to stop is also sickening because this lead to their children’s death. They fought for education and their freedom but the law just wasn’t on their side.
The Black Panther Party was just trying to fight for their rights. They studied the laws and they knew what rights they had and what was being taken away from them. Our people have been harassed by the police in the past and it is still continuing to this day.
People just wanted to fight for their rigths and the law didn’t help how their supposed to . They wanted education , freedom and not to feel criticism for their skin color.
Very difficult to watch how that turned out, what stuck out to me most is the parents who advocated for the police to go in with force ended up advocating for their own children’s death.
Also the police lying about how the hostages died is no surprise either they went in their with the intent to kill the leaders of the revolt and to shame, humiliate, and torture every other inmate in the prison.
This sadly is another example of the levels of hypocracy and overt racism that abound widely (and covertly unchecked) within America’s legal and political systems. The absolute positions of power and privilege given to those who are “supposed” to enforce and protect the sanctity of our legal and civil systems is so often blatently abused and weaponized against those whom they sworn to protect. If, as former President Nixon said, “no one is above or beneath the law;” then why are so many of them (police officers/politicians) able to break the law while being protected by it. America is “a nation of law”, but I most certainly know that the laws don’t apply to us all equally.
Committed to investigating, examining, and representing the African-American male, men, and manhood by offering commentary regarding the status of Black Men and Black Manhood as it relates to African-American Manhood, Race, Class, Politics, and Culture from an educated and authentic African-American perspective aimed at improving the plight of African-American men and African-American Manhood in regards to Politics, Culture, Education, and Social Matters.

Black people should have the same privilege as others, and taking that away is not showing traits of equality in America.
