Check your local listings or bobedwardsradio.com for an excellent interview with Jamal Joseph about his book, “Panther Baby.” The show was on 6-7pm est last night and will be a repeat today –2p.
Mr. Joseph’s experience directly relates to occupy today in my opinion. I had no idea that the Black Panthers were actually successful community organizers; and their destruction came from having an identifiable leadership.
After listening to the program, I can also see how our media have been supplying disinformation far beyond the consolidations of the ’90s.
I highly recommend listening to Bob Edwards’ interview and would enjoy a Book Salon with Jamal Joseph.

Yes, they were very successful organizers. That is why the “law enforcement” people assassinated Fred Hampton in Illinois.
