THIS IS A VERY SHORT DVD! BUT WELL WORTH IT! I WISH WE HAD LEADERS LIKE HIM TODAY! HE MAKES OBAMA LOOK LIKE BRYAN GUMBLE!

Clear Pictures with Great Sound --- What a great Personality in Mr. Newton.
He like all of us have short comings in our short lives but, he sure made some
monumental statements and stances during his SHORT LIFESPAN. Even if you are
a Republican/ Tea-party/ or a what ever happen to the KLAN member -- You
should get this DVD. It is truly an AMERICAN HISTORICAL TREASURE that cannot
be denied. The name Black Panther Party is a turn-off to most White Folks thinking
that they(Panthers) was a wholly Black who only Loved Blacks organization. That
is a myth, a lie, a falsehood. They(Panthers)were protective of their people
and Children needs(FREE BREAKFAST BEFORE SCHOOL PROGRAMS) Allot of there funding
were from Whites,Indigenous Indians,Spanish,and Jewish Folks. Huey knew that many
of the Oakland Police Officers were recruited from the Southern States and brought
to California to "CONTROL" the Black areas. These P.O's hated the very "SIGHT" the
very "SMELLS" they Hated even the "Thought of Blacks" ... and they proceeded under
those Hatreds towards the Blacks, Black Women-Men-and little innocent Black Babies.
I've heard so many times in my 59 years -- You Blacks think you are so "Great" you
expect your race is all that, you think people should look up to you ect. Well, I
say "WE ARE THE STRONGEST RACE IN THIS WORLD - OUR COLOR IS REJECTED BY ALL RACES IN THIS WORLD, WE HAVE TO BE STRONG."

I thought the video was too short to justify the expense, that the sound was of poor quality and that the understanding of what was going on and way was weak - unless you lived through those times. I did not - and that is why I got the DVD! So much for that experience. I would reference you to "A Huey P. Newton Story" Starring Roger Guenveur Smith.
