Harold Taylor was jailed today (Thursday) by SF Superior Court Judge Robert
Dondero for refusing to cooperate with a San Francisco Grand Jury allegedly
investigating events going back over 30 years. A hearing for another Black
activist, Richard Brown, was put over until Wednesday, September 21. He is
also expected to resist. This "investigation" represents a stepped-up
campaign to sweep up former Black Panthers, alleging that people have
knowledge of events in the early 70s. The FBI and local police all across
the US were employing major resources to attack and destroy the Black
liberation movement under the Cointelpro program at that time. Cointelpro
was designed to use extra-legal means to prevent the growth of
community-based and national resistance to the historic oppression
of people of color. No government agency, officer or agent has ever been
held accountable for any of the violence, assassinations and illegalities
under Cointelpro or related programs.
Ray Boudreaux was jailed indefinitely as of August 29 at San Francisco
County Jail on the order of the same judge who also ordered Hank Jones to
be jailed Wednesday (yesterday).

For those of you in "Newer" formations who foolishly believe that using the
Black Panther symbol and/or name is some kind of romanticism of the past and;
For those "original" Party members that are quoted as being "Ex" and/or
"Former" Panthers;
WAKE UP BROTHERS & SISTERS
Current actions like the attached forwarded message, Kamau Sadiki's capture
after over 30 years, Jamil Al-Amin's Frame-up and the $1million bounty on
Assata Shakur; should make it clear that COINTELPRO never ended.
In the eyes, memories and laws of the enemy; when we said "Once A Panther,
Always A Panther," it was not just a historic and forgotten slogan of the
60's and 70's.
Don't take my word for it, just ask the comrades that have been held
captive as Political Prisoners/POW's and/or forced into Exile for the past
40 years.
