Where are the Black Panthers when you need them?
Things are getting pretty hectic with teabaggers and their anti-Obama protest. I think we need more than just people to do counter protest against them, we need something else something that will probably put some fear into them. What we need to do is get one of those Batman type search lights, and put the Black Power Fist in it. Who would answer the call of the Black Power Fist? The Black Panthers of course would come through. I think that a clash between teabaggers and Black Panther would be something epic. Can you imagine them showing up to a tea party dressed in a black, with their Africa medallions, and their Black Power fist and Afros it would be glorious. Do you think that the teabaggers would be afraid or would they actually continue to spout off a lot of their hate filled sayings about Obama, as well as hold their racist signs? But when I say Black Panthers I do not mean any new Black Panthers that they have now, I mean the Huey Newton and Bobby Seale Black Panthers. But there could be some KKK or Neo Nazi members hidden in the crowd of the teabaggers, but I still believe that the Black Panthers power is greater than that of the KKK or Neo Nazi.
Maybe bringing back the Black Panthers will bring back the sentiment of Black Power. And I do not mean the "I hate honkies" ideals of Black Power. I mean bringing black people together and standing up for the issues that affect us. And I do not mean "My POLO collection is better than yours", "I am smoking way more loud than you", "Oh no lil Wayne is going to jail!" I mean the true issues that affect our community. I cannot front I feel as though a resurgence of Black Power and the Black Panthers would make me want to believe more in strengthening the black community. I thought that having a half black president would have been more than enough to do that but it was not. Maybe the Black Panthers will come out of hiding, or Obama will reveal that he is actually a Black Panther at his next speech by showing up in all black and pulling a Tommy Smith.
