Great story
I love my African American history but white people should not be reading black stories PERIODT
Black Panther Party
It was great to hear the view of the Black Panther Party for Self Defense from the members of the BPP. To often the school system, media outlets and society portrays them as a hate group but if you listen to their message you see the exact opposite. Love to hear these brothers speak on issues of their time and see how they relate today. Can't say enough good things about them.
