Black Panther Party
The Black Panther Party was a revolutionary and socialist organization founded by Huey P. Newton who earned a Ph.D. in Social Philosophy, and co-founder Bobby Seale in Oakland, California 1966. It had chapters in the Bay Area, Seattle, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia etc.

The Black Panthers even worked with the White Panther Party founded in 1968 by Leni Sinclair and John Sinclair, and The Weather Underground group, formed at the University of Michigan, lead by Bill Ayers in 1969. AKA the 'Weathermen', their political theory sought to make every struggle an anti-imperialist, anti-racist struggle; out of this came the Weathermen's critical concepts that would later be known as 'white privilege'

The Black Panthers had armed citizens monitor police officers to prevent police brutality of blacks from occurring in Oakland, California. The group initiated community social programs across the country, such as the Free Breakfast for Children Program, and People's Free Medical Centers. Their kitchen units across the US fed over 10,000 children every day before school.

Today: A group claiming to be the "New Black Panther Party" was formed in Dallas, Texas. The Huey Newton Foundation, co-founder Bobby Seale, and original party members have insisted this group is illegitimate and they've strongly opposed it by stating "there is no new Black Panther Party"
