      The article presents the author's insights on the history of the Black Panther Party for Self Defense (BPP). It notes that BPP was founded due to the violent experiences of African Americans in the hands of White Americans such as being brutalized for campaigning against social injustices. It mentions that in 1969, some BPP members were charged of scheme to bomb department stores and police stations in New York City, but were cleared of charges in 1971 after more than an hour of deliberation.
