Oerjan Oeberg:
This is Huey Newton, the founder and leader of the Black Panthers, on his way out of the trial in Oakland, California. This is the fourth time is trial has been postponed. Huey Newton has been bailed out for a sum of $50,000.
Huey P. Newton:
So, we're gonna have to go now. Power to the people.
Oerjan Oeberg:
A number of trials against radicals are being carried out across the country: the trial against Bobby Seale, the trial against the black intellectual Angela Davis, and the trial against 13 prominent Panthers in New York. The information Minister of the Panthers, Eldridge Cleaver, is in exile in Algeria. The only free leader of the Panthers is Huey P. Newton. The verdict of manslaughter against him was unjust. He was unconscious at the time of the murder.
Huey P. Newton:
Ummm... my treatment was generally abusive and oppressive, and primarily because of the fact that I was a prisoner of war and a political prisoner.
Oerjan Oeberg:
What do you think is going to happen with the Black Panthers now? You're losing your leaders, et cetera.
Huey P. Newton:
Uhhh... it is true that many of our leaders have been confined in the concentration camps here in America. I know that the Black Panther Party will prevail - it's the vanguard of the people's struggle; and that while leaders are put into prison, new leaders are born, new leaders are made.
