Black Panthers are or at least were to my knowledge hopelessly deluded. What the **** did they think they were going to accomplish by arming themselves and revolting against the government?

Don’t underestimate how much influence on the public psyche these kind of theatrics can have. Creating a tiny seed of doubt on both sides about the permanence of the current power structure has to start with a van guard of radicalism. The results may not translate to simple cause and effect results in high school history books but you have to have a radical fringe that plants that seed of fear into the existing oppressor. And then the results of that can ripple.
It’s always taught that Nat Turner failed but I don’t think he did. I think he was the first wave of a movement that ultimately won.
Didn’t show it in that sissy movie but they chopped up ten white children and piled their body parts up for effect. It scared the **** out of whitey. Like 9/11 it said, we can touch you bitch.
