// BLACK PANTHER PARTY HISTORY MONTH //

BLACK PANTHER HISTORY MONTH INVITES US TO CELEBRATE & LEARN THE IDEOLOGIES, PRACTICES, AND EXPERIENCES OF OUR ELDERS & ANCESTORS WHO WORKED WITHIN THE BLACK PANTHER PARTY AROUND THE WORLD. WE THANK PANTHER VETERANS FOR THEIR PHENOMENAL SACRIFICES & CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE GLOBAL MOVEMENT FOR PAN-AFRICAN LIBERATION. OUR WORLD WOULD LOOK RADICALLY DIFFERENT IF THEY HADN'T CHOSEN TO FIGHT FOR OUR FUTURE. THE 10 POINT PLATFORM WRITTEN BY THE BPP IN 1966 PROVIDES A FRAMEWORK FOR US TO UNDERSTAND & ADVOCATE FOR THE CURRENT NEEDS OF OUR COMMUNITIES. THE REVOLUTIONARY SPIRIT OF THE BLACK PANTHER PARTY LIVES ON!
