Kathleen Cleaver:
Black Panther Party, started in Oakland, California. And so, you know, the party is known mostly for its confrontational stances; and that's a good thing - to be confrontational against evil and violence. The kind of problems that the black community suffer; unequal levels of imprisonment, unequal levels of access to resources, poor health. And so, the Black Panther Party tried to model for the community; some of the possible solutions that were not capitalist oriented, like; free clinic. You know, you could come here and get free medical care, or send your children to us - we will feed them for free. And this idea of free breakfasts, is one of the legacies that's been adopted. Now, the schools have free breakfasts, but they didn't before. I think the party... it's not only the organization that did it; but it's the only organization based in ghetto communities that did it.
