Black Panther Herman Bell talks openly about the criminal charges filed against him in New York and San Francisco. The discussion also ranges from examples of police corruption and the relationship between the police and the black community, to the need for “people’s” media outlets to compete with the ruling class monopoly on information dissemination. Later in the tape Bell talks of the possibility of bringing the case of Human Rights abuses in the U.S. to the attention of the United Nations. And he ends with his analysis of what the differences are between a “real” revolutionary and a superficial one.
