The Black Panther Party, often misperceived as solely a violent, anti-white organization, was a complex group founded to combat police brutality and advocate for Black communities, achieving significant social programs despite a tumultuous and often violent relationship with law enforcement.

time to Pi
up if you're wondering just how divisive
the Black Panthers were and still are as
an organization look no further than
Super Bowl 50 Beyonce's background
dancers merely dressed up as members of
the revolutionary group and have managed
to capture the nation's outrage and
admiration so is the Black Panther Party
to be praised or shunned I think the
biggest misperception about the Panthers
is they you know were kind of these
anti-white gun toting you know mostly
ale you know violent bitant black people
you know these were young people I mean
they were mostly you know under 20 um
and they were really trying to make a
change the Black Panthers were founded
in Oakland California in 1966 and upon
their founding had a relatively simple
goal stop police brutality one of their
practices in order to stop police
violence was police patrols members
citing open carry gun laws carried
loaded guns while following police cars
around black neighborhoods no one would
do anything until a policeman ejected
around in the chamber then we would all
eject rounds in the chamber and all up
and down the street you could hear this
clack CL the goals eventually expanded
into the group's 10-point program which
along with ending police brutality
called for more employment opportunities
an end to housing discrimination and
more minority representation in jury
trials this Defiance in the face of laww
enforcement continued to escalate and it
eventually grew deadly leaving
casualties and blame on both sides
former black panther Eldridge Cleaver
admitted to ambushing police officers in
1968 which resulted in the first of
eight shootouts with law enforcement
nationally in just two years I am not
standing for violence uh but I do stand
for self-defense even Panther's
co-founder huie P Newton was convicted
of voluntary manslaughter charges in the
death of Oakland Police Officer John
Frey though Newton's conviction was
eventually thrown out on the other hand
Panthers members did suffer at the hands
of police Fred Hampton and Mark Clark
were both killed during a raid by the
FBI in the Chicago Police Department it
was determined in a federal
investigation that only one shot was
fired by the Panthers while the other 80
to 90 shots were fired by police the
city of Chicago Cook County and the
federal government eventually paid a
1.85 million dooll settlement to the
mothers of Clark and Hampton in relation
to the raid but The Shining achievement
of the Panthers had nothing to do with
its tumultuous back and forth with the
police children that didn't have a good
breakfast in the morning were less
attentive at school and less inclined to
do well and we just simply took that
information and a program was developed
serving breakfast to Children during its
peak the Black Panther party's free
breakfast for children program served
full breakfast eggs bacon grits toast
and milk to 20 ,000 kids in 19 cities
every school day one could even argue
the program was the inspiration for the
usda's current School breakfast program
it serves more than 13 million kids
every school day the breakfast program
was one of more than 60 different
community outreach programs aimed at
improving the black community so who
were the Black Panthers well for those
community members the Panthers Legacy is
mostly a positive one but to the
families of law enforcement this same
organization was essentially a terror
group so like most organizations pushing
for change they were complicated for
