Black Panther Party True History - Paperback

This book tells the true story of The Black Panther Party True History: When I was in the U. S. Navy stationed on the USS Ranger CVA 61 docked at Alameda, California, I would go on 7th Street in Oakland for liberty. I ran across a group of Black youngster who wanted donations to their Church to help fund The Black Panthers Program in their Pentecostal Church in the late 1950s. The Black Panther Party achieved National and International notoriety through its involvement in the Black Power Movement and U.S. Politics of the 1960s and 1970s. The group's "provocative rhetoric, militant posture, and Cultural and Political flourishes permanently altered the contours of American Identity." Founded in Oakland, California by Bobby Seale and Huey Newton on October 15, 1966, the Organization initially set forth a Doctrine calling primarily for the protection of African American neighborhoods from Police brutality.
