The Long, Repressed History of Black Leftism | Al Jazeera America

It is 0400 hours, 29July2015……today’s lead story on the news was Tom Brady and “deflate-gate”……that is pathetic especially after a major escalation in the war against ISIS and they lead with this mind numbing bullshit!

I am an aging hippie that was ass deep into the protests of the 60 and 70’s…….I was in Oakland years ago, at the height of the Black Panthers hey day, and witnessed the positive influence they had on the community………I was amazed at what they had done in several neighborhoods…..they had set up free daycare, free clinics, free lunches for homeless, programs for addiction, etc…….and yet the only thing most Americans know about them, the Panthers, is what the media force fed them in their nightly news…….

Yes they were revolutionaries but they did more good than they were given credit……the MSM did everything possible to assassinate their legacy and unfortunately they were successful……….

Where has that sense of “community” gone?
