These Women Were the Unsung Heroes of the Black Panther Party 

Adventure in Algeria and Mexico? Elridge was on exile. You make it sound like they went back packing for the heck of it.

Angela Davis was a FRIEND of the Black Panther Party, and worked with them on political education, but was not an actual member of the Black Panther Party. She did become personal friend with Jonathan Jackson and George Jackson, the Soledad Brother.

this is not well researched

These women were definitely not “unsung.” The only people who didn’t know about them were those who knew next to nothing about the Panthers until they decided to do some research to make a video. Getting the information out there is a good thing. There are also a couple of other women that we know about that weren’t even mentioned.

Assata Shakur

Elaine Brown was definitely an informant!

Elaine Browne was A MOLE In the Black Panthers

Gorgeous , smart and courageous ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻

I was literally looking for this specific video. Thanks.

Love these women so much.

Thank you so much for this piece.

I heard that they were College students, that served breakfast, held free health clinics, and was involved with the Cival Rights Movement. The Policed the Black Communities that had to deal with Police Brutality. Some people don't know the difference between the Nation of Islam, Black Panther Party, and Black Power Project. Those were some of the group's that existed during that time in the 60's and 70's. A lot of rumors have been misconstrued with the Black Panther Party, as being a hate group. Okay if they was such a hate group, then why was there White people around spectating when there was someone making a speech in public about the issues that Black people have had to face in the Black Community. I think some people took the Name of that Organization and made it out to their opinion, as to what they think that it should be about. The Black Panther Party was not the only Black Organization around during those times. Malcolm X spoke about other Black groups on TV as well.

RIP Kathleen Smith

We need them now

Asata shakur

Thanks for this!

We need them

Love my sister beautiful beings

What about Erica Huggins, Afeni and Assata Shakur. Plus the first woman who joined the BPP. Angela Davis and elaine brown need to be removed.

This video completly left out the poltics of these women...so suspect

These women werent caught up in music entertainment, professional sports, and materialism. When you listen to their conversation you know they were in tune with society. They're not concern with fashion etc...they were about a cause. In the 60's most black was about equality . We' ve lost this mind set to materialism and idolatry.meaning idolizing other humanbeing who have more money and materials than you or i do.

Elaine Brown was a whole lot man is sit a lot of them brothers up

Angela David had some beautiful hair.

I love this.

The black man and women are God

Elena Janine Durham aka JELLY. We All Love you JELLY!!!!!!! 😘😘😘😘😘😘

All 3 beautiful black woman

Why must are community be plagued with colorism and misrepresentation? It's so exhausting... 🙄

No disrespect although I am very grateful for all the women who have worked and spend their lives bringing focus to "black issues", I am yet to see the true image of a real African black woman placed up there as a black heroine. The wonderful and courageous women mentioned in this clip are all either "light skinned" or appears to have some racial mixture and therefore; do not fully represent the image and likeness of an authentic black, African woman. To the white racist, we are all black however; within the black community there is a long history of lighter complexed women and racially mixed women, being allowed opportunities for leadership and visibility, that the black skinned woman is denied. To conceal this fact, mixed women are allowed to represent the entirety of African women, while the true African woman has to remain invisible and under represented. Angela Davis along with Ms Cleavers are great examples of what I am saying. Dark skinned sisters need to be truly represented, it is so needed.

These are what I call real black women.

Thank you for helping me educate my primarily Caucasian school. The Black Panther Party is my final research project and am happy to say that I have created an unbiased piece of work to teach the subject. Many people, including the teachers, have never even thought about researching issues that the African American community had to deal with and still have to deal with today. Again, video was very helpful. Thank you

The narrator really said “adventure” like she was on a vacation or something.

And they recognized that capitalism must end if we are to create an equal society.

interesting

❤

You can't be a hero if you were a member of the black panther party and you somehow survived Edgar J. Hoover.

Some has since been corrupted.

Within the Black Community these women were well known.

These men and women are the real black Panther the Black Panther movie is based on.

Angela Davis was not member Black Panther Party .

Assata Shakur and Afeni Shakur

I wouldn't say Davis was 'unsung'. She's an important figure in black feminist thought, even if she was not directly involved in the Black Panther Party.

Lies. Don’t let these people fool you. Research!

Real role models

Hey POPSUGAR Entertainment, you got a lot of the facts wrong! This is disrespectful, do better on your research!

I thought Kline was a CIA associate.

Lmaoo yea okay after EVERYTHING let me sit down and let a chwhite woman teach me about my history ifyouwont🤫

I love the video! But when Angela Davis explains why she left the Black Panther Party, she has said it was because she wasn't permitted to be a member of another political party, and so she chose to stay with the Communist party. She was long a member of the Communist party, and her membership in that party was the reason she was kicked out of UCLA. I actually think Communism should be a viable political choice in this country, and feel that it hurts the party Angela held dear to omit it from the video. All around I appreciate the video and now I have two new leaders to research, but please lets not hide Angela's commitment to the worker's rights movement. Thanks!

POWERFUL ASSATA SKAKUR AMAZING THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜,

Kathleen doh 😍😍😍😍😍😍

If you forgive anyone's sins, their sins are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven."

So they predicted the Black Panther, now they predicted Harambe?

✌☮ to the God's and the one nation13 crew 🌐....

Would prefer it if black peoples write our own stories some very pronounced inaccuracies!!! Angela Davies for instance never actually joined the Panthers as a member although she was always very supportive of their work

I don't hate. .

Miss angela davis is the best black painter

YHSH Visited Mary Magdalene First, because She sought HIM more. Do You think that YHSH would tell saul (paul) to tell MARY AND HIS MOTHER MARY TO KEEP QUET IN CHURCH?

Elena Janine Durham.

i like how the black panther party women leaders are Mexicans.

Didn't Angela Davis say that she wasn't a feminist because of the conflicting ideas of white bourgeois feminism vs. intersectional feminism?

A Woman's Place is in the STRUGGLE! --- BPP

They were unsung heroes.. until they abandoned the people. Married, dated, slept with the enemy. Got in bed with The White Man. Smh.

Godesses lionesses love em forever

How is Angela Davis unsung? Maybe to you.

All these women are cointelpro.

The. Black. Panther. Party didnt originate in. Oakland

.....WHY IS " BECKY?!" NARRATING THIS?🧐🤫🧐🤫🧐🤫🧐🤫🧐

Angela Is Bae 😍❤️

There they go again trying to divide and conquer

Feminism had nothing to do with B.P.P , it was a intelligent strategy to look none threatening to outsiders .

Wow. Wait this is it? Lies. I know their were more. I’m going to an 80s 90s party and want to be a black panther. I need more options, or I’ll pick Angela Davis. Please older black leaders.... Show me more.

The celebration of divide and conquer.You have a Caucasian woman narrating and celebrating the division between our people. If sistas don't see a problem with this I don't know what to say. Smh

Jesus Appears to the Disciples …22When He had said this, He breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you withhold forgiveness from anyone, it is withheld.” 24Now Thomas called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.…

These wombman got me questioning if im really “Black” not one yell “Black” to me ! It seems to yell “Biracial” or “Apart of black culture”

First

Do you actually think a black person made this video? Check the agenda, yo.

Who is this White Woman Narrating this Propaganda? We have "Unsung" black women from across the country who were involved with the Black Movement of the 60's.....Gloria Richardson, Fannie Lou Hamer, Nina Simone, Asata and Alfeni Shakur just to name a few...

Idol worship is lame.

They were informants not hero’s sorry to bust the bubble 🤷🏾‍♂️

Hmmmm...wo-men...really??? Heeheeheeheeheeheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

Dark skin women erased

Women?!?!?!?!

blm

Angela Davis was never a black panther.she was a part of cpusa.get it right!

But two of them are white lol

Angela. Davis was not a. Black panther

All biracial....

Delete this

I cant stand Angela Davis.

The real question here is "who titled this page" and " why " ? It's a racist channel and guarantee not one for the black ppl.

Robbing banks and murdering cops is very noble as well as playing the eternal victim. Hero's indeed.

Who is this cornball narrating? We need someone more qualified to give the full story. You can't sum up these women's contributions in less than 3 minutes.

Women...hahahahaha. Not.

B.S. Those are MEN dressed as WOMEN.
