Watch the first 2:30 of this Blank Panther video. This is some powerful protesting. I love these chants. Let's all take to the streets right now and protest the War On Drugs with these chants.
"No more pigs in our community! Off the pigs (?) ! No more pigs in our community! Off the pigs (?) ! No more pigs in our community! Off the pigs (?) ! No more pigs in our community! Off the pigs (?) ! No more pigs in our community! Off the pigs (?) ! No more pigs in our community! Off the pigs (?) !"
"The revolution has come. Off the pigs (?) ! Time to pick up the gun. Off the pigs (?) ! The revolution has come. Off the pigs (?) ! Time to pick up the gun. Off the pigs (?) ! The revolution has come. Off the pigs (?) ! Time to pick up the gun. Off the pigs (?) ! The revolution has come. Off the pigs (?) ! Time to pick up the gun. Off the pigs (?) ! The revolution has come. Off the pigs (?) ! Time to pick up the gun. Off the pigs (?) !"

Here's another great one that we could borrow. This one starts at 9:13.
"No more brothers in jail. Off the pigs! The pigs are gonna catch hell. Off the pigs! No more brothers in jail. Off the pigs! The pigs are gonna catch hell. Off the pigs! No more brothers in jail. Off the pigs! The pigs are gonna catch hell. Off the pigs! No more brothers in jail. Off the pigs! The pigs are gonna catch hell. Off the pigs! No more brothers in jail. Off the pigs!

Someone must sample those chants and mix up some crucial breaks and loops with them.

1968. 
One of the nastiest years in American politics. Hubert Humphrey sat in his suite while Hunter Thompson was taking a billy club to the balls in Chicago.

I'm pretty sure that HST was watching the protests from his hotel.

I'm reading F&L on the Campaign Trail 1972 right now. HST claims he got nailed by a cop on the corner, but you can never tell with Hunter.

Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale fought the good fight back then.Quote:
Newton was accused of murdering Oakland police officer John Frey.
Frey had stopped Newton before dawn on October 28, 1967, and attempted to disarm and discourage the Panther patrols. After fellow officer Herbert Heanes arrived for backup, shots were fired, and all three were wounded. Heanes testified that the shooting began after Newton was under arrest, and a surprise witness testified that Newton shot Frey with Frey's own gun as they wrestled. No gun for Frey or Newton was found. Newton himself claimed that Frey shot him first, which made him subsequently pass out for the rest of the incident; Newton also claimed that it appeared (from the courtroom testimony of the surviving officer) that the two police officers either shot each other, or there was a third shooter (most likely the former). Frey was hit four times and died within the hour, while Heanes was left in a serious condition with three bullet wounds. With a bullet wound to the abdomen, Newton staggered into the city's Kaiser Hospital. He was admitted but was later shocked to find himself chained to his bed.[8] Newton also recalls in his book vague images of being operated on in the hospital while police were interrogating him.
Charged with murdering Frey, Newton was convicted in September 1968 of voluntary manslaughter and was sentenced to 2–15 years in prison. In May 1970, the California Appellate Court reversed the conviction and ordered a new trial. After two subsequent mistrials, the State of California dropped the case... In January 1977, Peoples Temple leader Jim Jones visited Newton in Cuba. After Jones fled to Jonestown, Guyana, Newton spoke to Temple members in Jonestown via phone patch supporting Jones during one of the Temple's earliest "White Nights." Newton's cousin, Stanley Clayton, was one of the few residents of Jonestown to escape the 1978 tragedy, during which more than 900 Temple members were ordered by Jones to commit suicide. Newton returned home in 1977 to face murder charges because, he said, the climate in the United States had changed, and he believed he could get a fair trial. Because the evidence was largely circumstantial and not solid beyond hearsay, Newton was acquitted of Kathleen Smith's murder after two trials were deadlocked...Newton earned a bachelor's degree from University of California, Santa Cruz in 1974... Newton earned a Ph.D. from UC Santa Cruz in 1980. His doctoral dissertation was entitled "War Against the Panthers: A Study of Repression in America." ... Newton was charged with embezzling state and federal funds from the Black Panthers' community education and nutrition programs. He was convicted in 1989... On August 22, 1989, Newton was fatally shot on the 1400 block of 9th street in West Oakland by a 24-year-old Black Guerilla Family member, Tyrone Robinson
. AND . Quote:
Bobby Seale was one of the original "Chicago Eight" defendants charged with conspiracy and inciting to riot, in the wake of the 1968 Democratic National Convention, in Chicago. Judge Julius Hoffman sentenced him to four years of imprisonment for contempt because of his outbursts, and eventually ordered Seale severed from the case, hence the "Chicago Seven." During the trial, one of Seale's many outbursts led the judge to have him bound and gagged, as commemorated in the song "Chicago" written by Graham Nash ... In 1987, he authored a cookbook called Barbequing with Bobby and was also a spokesman for Ben & Jerry’s ice cream... In 2002, Seale began dedicating his time to Reach!, a group focused on youth education programs. Also, he taught black studies at Temple University in Philadelphia and is currently launching an instructional, nonprofit group helping people develop the necessary techniques and tools to set up community organization within their neighborhoods.
Sorry for the long post, but I didn't think too many members here would even bother to open a link that involves learning something about ancient history. . . .

Eldridge Cleaver. . Quote:
He was a Presidential candidate in 1968 on the ticket of the Peace and Freedom Party. Later that year, he was shot during an ambush of Oakland police in which fellow Black Panther member Bobby Hutton was killed and two police officers were injured. Cleaver later said that he had led the Panther group on a deliberate ambush of the police officers, thus provoking the shoot-out. Charged with attempted murder, he jumped bail to flee to Cuba and later went to Algeria. Following Timothy Leary's Weather Underground assisted prison escape, Leary stayed with Cleaver in Algeria; however, Cleaver placed Leary under "revolutionary arrest" as a counter-revolutionary for promoting drug use as an alternative to armed struggle. Cleaver later left Algeria and spent time in France... Cleaver returned to the United States in 1975, surrendered to the FBI and after a year of being imprisoned, legal wrangling ended in his being sentenced to probation for assault. Finally free, Cleaver renounced the revolutionary trajectory of his past and embarked on an inherently spiritual journey which would occupy most of his time and energy during his immediate post-exile years... Cleaver published Soul on Fire in 1978. Cleaver revealed several aspects of his exile in Algeria:
Cleaver was supported by regular stipends from the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, which the United States was then bombing. Cleaver was followed by other former criminals turned revolutionaries, many of whom hijacked planes to get to Algeria. The Algerians expected Cleaver to keep his protégés in line, which he described as increasingly difficult as their increasing numbers stretched his North Vietnamese allowance to the breaking point. Cleaver organized a stolen car ring to employ his revolutionary protégés, stealing cars in Europe to sell in Africa. Cleaver eventually fled Algeria out of fear for his life. He could no longer control his protégés and the Algerian police were cracking down on them. He subsequently lived underground for a time in France. Cleaver became a "born again" Christian during his year of isolation, while living underground.
