The Black Panthers originally formed to offer black history at their college, but turned into a political party that instituted social programs and monitored police activity in their communities. In this episode we’ll talk about how their free breakfast program inspired the nationwide program we have today, how the police and FBI disrupted their social programs, and the controversies that led to their dissolution. All that, plus some facts about Marvel’s Black Panther! You won't want to miss this history rich episode!
