I'm seeing folks say they kinda did Huey wrong in the last 20 minutes

i wouldn't say they did him wrong but i don't think they highlighted enough the mental anguish he was under from the fbi tactics

his close people were dying and getting locked up and he didn't really know who to trust with all the misinformation and mistrust fbi was spreading thru cointelpro

i mean the state was literally conducting an all-out psychological war on the panthers

it did a real number on his psyche and everyone elses. this is stuff that i personally heard ericka huggins talk about when i heard her speak about it.

Live your own life
this why its so infuriating every time these cacs try to talk about black panther party being "divisive" when they were all about bringing people together and class solidarity. calling them divisive is a bold face lie :stopitslime:

"power to the people" what that mean? you look at those crowds fred hampton was speaking to it was full of people from all backgrounds. the militant aspect was wholly defensive
Yep. Cacs forgot some of their own were part of the movement. Muthafukkas want to act they never said fukk the police. :francis:

They could of went into details... of him . Towards the end of his life, he was really in the streets. That's all. They grazed over the shyt. nikka was a maniac. He was heavy in Oakland streets and had shyt on lock till he died.
He was involved in drug trafficking, weapons, prostitution, and he was addicted to drugs...

Right. ..They morphed into heroes. ..Panthers were the streets. ... they were the people. .. and a negative connotation shouldn't be associated with that.
