October 15, 1966, the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense was founded as a revolutionary Black organization to fight capitalist oppression & for self-determination. It stood in solidarity w/ oppressed people around the world against Western imperialism & settler colonialism

Im sure you can find these kind of overt racist arrest practices and text messages and in almost every police department in this country
Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officers reportedly had a text thread competing to pull over the most Black drivers, while using racial slurs in discussions about force against Black residents. More than half a dozen officers have reportedly been recommended for termination or quit.
A badge should NEVER be a license for discrimination! These allegations call into question traffic stops and use-of-force incidents involving these officers!

Crazy when Finkelstein knows more about Black history & the relevance of resistance/violence by the oppressed against the oppressor than McWhor-ter. How can anyone expect enslaved Africans, Palestinians, or any oppressed people to die at the hands of their oppressor & do nothing.

Home while Black. This cop was just paroled after serving 7 yrs for the MURDER of Botham Jean a 26 year old Black man. Jean was sitting on his couch when she broke into his apt & shot him twice claiming she thought it was her apt. White tears led her to get only 10yrs for murder

Most of the non-european world united to walk out against the country commiting genocide. They should have done the same to the country paying for the genocide.

One of our proudest moments is hosting a brothers' retreat for veterans of the Black Panther Party, BLA, and former political prisoners. This is why the Love, Land, and Liberation project is so important for Community Movement Builders @CommunityMvt
