CW Racism, Murder
He was a Revolutionary Panther not simply an activist.
Quoting Nick in the comments: The continued quote:
"We’re going to fight racism not with racism, but we’re going to fight with solidarity. We say we’re not going to fight capitalism with black capitalism, but we’re going to fight it with socialism. We’re stood up and said we’re not going to fight reactionary pigs and reactionary state’s attorneys like this and reactionary state’s attorneys like Hanrahan with any other reactions on our part. We’re going to fight their reactions with all of us people getting together and having an international proletarian revolution."
“We’re not going to fight racism with racism, we’re going to fight it with solidarity.” Fred Hampton,
Fred Hampton was a young black activist and leader in the civil rights movement. At 21, he was murdered in his bed by a police officer.
The fight to end racism is far from over, and Woodcraft Folk stands in solidarity with all those affected by, and fighting against racist violence.
Racism must be challenged and opposed, and we we all have more work to do. We are committed to unity, action, and education to support young people to build a new and better world.
