Malcolm X: The Rise Of The Black Panther Party

Huey Newton and Bobby Seale wanted people to join the Black Panthers not only for them to be able to carry firearms in the streets but also to help the community and help educate and bring about the 4 desires of the Black Panthers of quality in education, housing, employment and Civil Rights (A)(H). The Black Panthers had a 10 point Plan to achieve these desires and it included ending all police brutality and ending all wars of aggression. They dint use violence because they wanted too, they used it to end conflicts and to protect themselves. They used violent and promoted the use of violent to help communities such as the Watts community which has been attacked by the police and had to result to violence as nonviolence didn’t stop the brutality(A)(D). The Police treated the member of the Black Panther in a horrible manner. They would raid them and humiliate them because they were carrying guns around. The Black panthers were treated worse them most people as the found ways around the constitution as they were allowed to be carrying guns around just like the

There was a group founded in 1996 called “Black Panthers”. It was a U.S. African American militant party who used self-defense against the local police. They grew to espouse violent revolution as the only means of achieving black liberation. This is similar to the “Black Lives Matter” protesters, but they wanted a more peaceful protest. They both are dealing with our cruel police who are killing African-Americans, and getting away with it instead of helping them. “Bobby Seale one of the “Chicago Eight” convicted of conspiring to violently disrupt the democratic national convention of 1968, was a codefendant in a Connecticut case charging murder of an alleged informer on the party”(The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia). The Democratic National

The SCLC acted on its initiative to gain the franchise even though this was not really successful. Their voting effort was called the “Crusade for Citizenship Program” and the main thrust of this program was to increase the black vote in South for 1958/1960 elections. For black communities, increasing the black vote was essential in promoting different goals and opportunities for black people.

The Black Panthers were originally started by Bobby Seale and Huey Newton. “Huey Newton and Bobby Seale. The two leading revolutionary men created the national organization as a way to collectively combat white oppression. After constantly seeing black people suffer from the torturous practices of police officers around the nation, Newton and Seale helped to form the pioneering black liberation group to help build community and confront corrupt systems of power.” (Huff. Post, 2016) Newton and Seale started to recruit members immediately. From there, the party only grew. After Malcolm X was murdered, it left a lot of black people devastated. So, they were thrilled when a new black power party was formed. So, the Black Panther Party swept the nation. The Panthers would take anyone that would help them. Newton and Seale wanted to not just protest Black rights, but also wanted to get involved and help black families in poverty. They started a free breakfast program, and had a school for inattentive kids. “In addition to challenging police brutality, the Black Panther Party launched more than 35 Survival Programs and provided community help, such as education, tuberculosis testing,

The Black Panther Party (BPP) originally formed in Oakland in the year 1966, was funded by Huey Newton and Bobby Seale. It was a so-called self-defense organization. They were a group fighting racial oppression which had a unique way of fighting for equality and the end of discrimination within the systems. The BPP played an essential role in inspiring other racially oppressed groups to create similar organizations to fight against white racism. The BPP ideology quickly spread throughout the country in places such as Chicago, New York, and dispersed in surrounding cities. Readings such as Maeda’s, which talked about how the BPP inspired the Red Guard Party and formed a solidarity with Asian-Americans,

In contrary to peaceful protest and marches led by Martin Luther King there were other leaders who had more radical approaches to protest. Amongst these radical leaders are Malcolm X, Robert Williams, and the Black Panthers. The Black Panthers, a group created by in 1966, by Huey P Newton and Bobby Seale protected black communities patrolling areas with loaded firearms, monitoring police activities involving blacks. Since they were known for carrying loaded firearms FBI Director J Edgar Hoover considered the Black Panthers “the greatest threat to the internal security of the United States” (To Determine the Destiny of Our Black Community). The Black Panthers created the Ten-Point Program. The Ten-Point Program was a rundown of ten things the

Out of all the decades, there has never been a decade like the sixties. The sixties was filled with diversity, hope, problems, anger and solutions. A lot of the different life-changing events and organizations took place in the sixties. One of the major organizations that took place in the sixties was the Black Panther Party. The main goal for the Black Panthers was not only to protect the African Americans but also to provide them with equal rights and opportunities. The prejudice that the African Americans went through got to a specific point where the Black Panthers felt they had no other choice but to use violence to get what they want. A lot was going on around the time of the Black Panthers creation. The Civil Rights movement was probably

There have been many movements in the United States in which African Americans have been the focal point for example the Selma March, the March on Washington, the civil rights movement, and even today the Black Lives Matter movement. Those movements have had a significant impact on the United States and still play a part in today’s society. Those movements still play a part in today’s society because without those movements there wouldn’t be a Black Lives Matter because African Americans wouldn’t have the courage to stand up a fight for their rights if it wasn’t for Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Rosa Parks, or the many other activists that stood up for African-American rights. Selma and the March on Washington share a big relationship to the Black Lives Matter and they are just as important to the civil rights movement.

The Black power movement was more than just a raised fist. It was an influential movement established in the 1960s, and began to slow down in the 70s, it promoted self-sufficiency among the black and African community, and they fought for equality and power among those who faced discrimination in society. The Civil Rights Movement and the Black Power Movement were two different movements with very similar motives, but different ways of going about their fight for equality. Symbolism played a significant role in representing the Black Power Movement, and helped unify the group by using one symbol that all recognized.The movement began as a reaction to the Civil Rights Movement and continued into the 1970s as a force for good. Imagine being discriminated against just because of the skin color you were born with. In addition to promoting more power for the people of color in society these strong people were pushing for equality among everyone.

In light of recent events and social media uproar, the goal of this argumentative paper is to provide a brief but comprehensive understanding to the concept of the black lives matter movement and slogan. The movement is an affirmation of Black people’s contributions to society, humanity, and their resilience in the face of oppression. (“About,” n.d.) As a result, this paper will critically examine the foundation of the movement and the validity of both sides of the argument and the media’s involvement and several other topics.

The SDS’s main issue revolved around the Vietnam War and particularly about matters relating to war, for instance, the drafting of students. The organization essentially wanted to create a “New Left” (Document 7). The Black Panther Party originally wanted to protect African Americans from acts of police brutality. However, along with putting an end to police brutality, they soon developed into a group who also wanted the release of all African Americans from jail and compensation for exploitation by white Americans (Document 8). The United Farm Workers ultimately wanted to improve migrant farmworkers wages and working conditions (Document 9). When reviewing the documents, the goals of each group may be similar, however, the goals were specifically targeting the group’s fundamental

It was established by Stokely Carmichael in Alabama in 1964. In October 1966 Bobby Seale and Huey Newton formed the black panther party in Oakland, California they named it after the new organization after the emblem adopted by Lowndes County Freedom Organization.(spartacus). There are theories that the F.B.I. had used dirty tactics to put the Black Panther Party to rest. Apparently the F.B.I. had put black propaganda in the media to show people that the Black Panther Party was bad and were a threat to society. The FBI may of used people to forge letters and break laws so it could be blamed on the Black Panther Party. They also said that the F.B.I. in the Chicago eight case and say they these tactics have never been admitted by the F.B.I. there have been many shootouts between police in the 1960s there were several incidents causing death on both sides some from surprise attacks.(spartacus) The police brutality and

In the first chapter of Paul Alkebulan's book “Survival Pending Revolution” he claims that Malcolm X was the “ideological patron saint” of the Black Panther Party. It is through a depiction of how Malcolm X's four primary beliefs were adopted by the BPP that Alkebulan explains how this title was earned. I argue that the most significant aspect of Malcolm X's influence on the BPP is not mentioned by Alkebulum in a sufficient way. Malcolm X passed on teachings that were rooted in a flexible ideological approach to rights activism that would instill a message for groups such as the BBP to evolve and adapt through time. BPP central committee member Landon Williams claimed that the party felt as thought they were the “heirs of Malcolm.” Alkebulan
