#union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Bobby Seale 8:18 PM (edited) – Community – Seize the Time-Black Panther Party, 60's & Beyond (Discussion) Listen to The African History Network Show, Thursday, April 25th, 8pm-11pm EST with guest, Bobby Seale, Co-Founder of The Black Panther Party For Self Defense. It's one thing to read about history in the history books but it's totally different to hear history directly from a History Maker. #blackpanthers #blackpantherparty #bobbyseale The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense was founded in October of 1966, in Oakland California. The Party advocated Self-Defense of the Black Community against the racist murder and brutality of the Oakland, Berkeley, Richmond and San Francisco Police through armed patrols of police activities. The purpose of the armed patrols was to capture the imagination of the people for broader community electoral purposes as Huey and I observe the police making arrest of black people. The Party also fought to establish greater peoples' empowerment via community control politics, through mass organizing of more than twenty different community based survival programs. Listen to the show at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/theafricanhistorynetworkshow or www.TheAfricanHistoryNetwork.com or by phone, when we are LIVE at (914) 338-1375.

#union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Zach Stein 8:27 PM – Public I saw this photo on Facebook. It's meant to imply that Obama isn't as Macho as our intrepid republican heroes, G.W. Bush and Ronald Reagan. This photo shows Obama hanging curtains while he was volunteering at a shelter for teens. My opinion on this is it's immature and wrong on a number of levels, one it implies that doing housework and hanging curtains somehow diminishes manliness, and secondly because what he was actually doing was a good deed. God forbid our president should spend some of his time volunteeering to help others. Bush and Reagan were clearing brush on their personal ranches, which I don't have a problem with, but of the three activities we should be celebrating the fact that Obama spent time helping others.http://www.twitpic.com/c5hzam
