"Huey Percy Newton (February 17, 1942 – August 22, 1989) was an African-American political activist and revolutionary who, along with Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party in 1966. He continued to pursue an education, eventually earning a Ph.D. in social philosophy.[1][2] In 1989 he was shot and killed in Oakland, California. ..."
"As a student at Merritt College in Oakland, Newton became involved in politics in the Bay Area. He joined the Afro-American Association (AAA), became a prominent member of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity, Beta Tau chapter; and played a role in getting the first African-American history course adopted as part of the college's curriculum.
He read the works of Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Frantz Fanon, Malcolm X, Mao Zedong, Émile Durkheim, and Che Guevara.
During his time at Merritt College, he met Bobby Seale, and the two organized the Black Panther Party for Self Defense in October 1966.[3]"

Below are the names and photos of 35 Police Officers who were murdered by the Black Panthers and the subsequent Black Liberation Army in the 60s, 70s and 80s [click link for list and details].
The Black Liberation Army was an organization that grew out of the Black Panther Party, composed of former Black Panther Party members, operating from about 1971-1980. Another two police officers on the list were murdered by the Weather Underground, a domestic terrorist group with ties to the Black Liberation Army.
Despite this readily available information, today the internet was full of articles criticizing those who were upset by Beyonce’s Super Bowl Halftime performance, and questioning how anyone could be upset over a woman “affirming her blackness.” Their analysis couldn’t have been more off.
We have no issues with someone “affirming their blackness” or any other identity they want to affirm. We do take issue when people pay homage to a group that used terrorism and violence to promote racism and revolutionary socialism – a group that murdered dozens of police officers in cold blood.
As you scroll through the list of officers below, look at their photos and read their stories. Among these officers are black men and white men. Rookies and veterans from across the country. Most were killed in unprovoked attacks and ambushes. They all left behind families….
Perhaps Beyonce, someone from the NFL, and someone representing CBS, could read through this list and tell us if they still stand by their decision to honor the Black Panthers during the Super Bowl. Then perhaps they could explain their answers to the surviving wives and children of these fallen officers. ...”
a 10 year old is lecturing us about racial discrimination?
Did his liberal dad, who didn’t know he would follow through, plant this idea in his head?
We are told that all white people are racists and I don’t allow racists to lecture me about race.
Brainwashed idiot.
At 10 YO it’s attention craving.
Yeah, we’re supposed to believe he came up with that on his own. Dad put that $hit in his head!
I am getting to the point where perhaps a short, sharp demonstration of genuine oppression might be in order for all these idiots whining about something that exists only in their minds and the past.
If little Liam was my kid I’d still be wearing his “expression of conscience” out.
In October, 2017 a cub scout was kicked out of his den for asking a State Senator tough questions. Perhaps little Liam needs to find a new den that will accept him.
“Look at me! Look at me!”
Probably has uber-lib, possibly untraditional partnered parents. He didn’t come up with this on his own.
Idiot father miseducation get his son
"When he did it I was really surprised and also really proud of him," Scott Holmes said.
So, really the dad used his kid as a political prop. Mind you this is the same dad who would scream bloody murder if another Cub Scout wore a MAGA hat. Suddenly, there would be a DEMAND to disallow the hat despite "free speech". Suddenly the paper and others wouldn't be writing about how proud they were of this kid for "daring" to do something so "brave".
What a crock.
The kid’s dad ought to jerk a knot in him. What, the kid’s dad is a raving leftist loon? That’s okay then...
And off goes little Liam, marching down the path that leads to certain doom & destruction. It almost always does when clueless parents teach their kid he is THE smartest, cutest, funniest, blah blahiest child genius that God has ever graced humankind to adore. Which of course guarantees little prodigy will grow up thinking he IS all that. Until he slowly realizes he is ONE OF MANY. At which point he will come COMPLETELY UNHINGED and, well, we all know what happens next.
THICK AS A BRICK, Jethro Till had it right
Kid needs a good spanking. So does mayor
Mayor endorses expressions of conscience unless they run counter to their agenda, of course.
