Audio: Former Black Panther on Panel at Urban Film Series
By kenya on Mar 7, 2008 in Audio, History
Since I finally got PodPress up and running, I decided to share this February 11, 2007, recording from the Urban Film Series in Washington, DC. The theme of the series, We Remember, “speaks to how urban communities have been tremendously challenged. Our most critical need is to figure out how to grab hold of the direction of children and families. Perhaps a look back at the trials and tribulations of our time can help us re-focus.”
One particular panel included Actress Yvette Freeman from ER, a former member of the Black Panther Party (I did not get his name), several filmmakers and others.
The Black Panther spoke of the struggle during and after the civil rights movement and how he hopes that today’s young people will do it better than they did by focusing on all aspects of making life better for Black people.
