On December 4th, 1969, the Black Panther Party’s Illinois Chairman Fred Hampton was murdered by police. But his story is about much more than the raid that took his life. The movement Hampton helped create was unique, and revolutionary.
In the late 1960s, Fred Hampton helped lead a coalition of activists, working across racial lines against a corrupt city government that threatened their communities. At the core of their work were social programs, including free breakfasts, health clinics, and legal aid. Hampton named the group the Rainbow Coalition. And because of their impact, it wasn’t long before they got the attention of the police and the FBI. What followed was an assassination, and a coverup.

Because it’s easier to silence those who point out problems than to solve those problems.
this makes me so mad that he is not being taught in high schools, he was so important for progression
Because he was a terrorist.

this would be considered critical race theory
There are no more revolutionaries in the Black community. In fact, the Black man has been turned into Rue Paul.
this enrages me .
O'neal was a snitch.
I have goosebumps. This is powerful. Thank you for this video.
ALL POWER TO THE PEOPLE– Chairman FRED
Oh no not a black man dead bahahahahahahaha
This editing is splendid.
this video is also yet another white-washing of Hampton and the black panthers. they were revolutionary anti-capitalists, to claim they wanted the US to be like fkn Canada is ridiculous. Canada is a highly exploitative capitalist country like any other, and they recognized that. Hampton was a Socialist, MLK was a Socialist. no, not so called "democratic socialists" like fkn Canada, real Socialists, who fought for real economic liberty and justice. a lot of the most respected activists in history recognized the abject failure of Capitalism, and fought to finally end it. and woke neoliberals continue to dilute their message while pretending to represent it to this day, to maintain the capitalist structures they including Vox,
So many of our murdered men should be alive. They wanted equality for all.
Our government will always be corrupt
"Activist" can be a friendly-sounding euphemism for "terrorist"
Aren't the black Panthers black supremacists and socialists?
Because he was right and the gov was wrong. Very simple.
After over 50yrs they finally admit to the murder of black leaders who were so important to the black community they jus had to be discredited and murdered by the state ,,, a policy that continues to this day ,,, wake up Amerikkka
They lost because of socialism
Black Panthers are not allowed inside city limits.
Why does the leader of the panther’s sound like Eddie Murphy
Why the leader of the black panthers sound like Eddie Murphy lol
I mea. The black panthers was a letter hate group. But is what it is
owned
So they wanted to free blacks from prison wow no wonder you were shot.
How can the black panthers demand freedom for the black community and then also demand housing, education, and full employment out of everyone else?
This is absolutely mind-blowing. Everyone needs to see this.
Why is this not being taught in school…wait I know. Because the government censors it.
Love
I never learned about this in school. I’m genuinely disappointed in the public school system..
