Bobby Seale interview
Date: 7/4/1968Call Number: CE 054Format: 1/4 7 1/2 ipsProducers: Colin EdwardsCollection: Colin Edwards Collection
Seale speaks at the Panther National Headquarters about former Panther Larry Powell. Poell, a day after his mysterious release from jail on a robbery charge, has testified before the Senate McClellan Investigative Committee, claiming that the Panthers are involved in extortion. Seale states that Powell had distributed a coloring book (withdrawn by the Party leadership) about targeting police. Seale refers to Safeway Stores in Oakland refusing to contribute food to the breakfas programs and subsequently being leafleted. Seale is asked about statements made by Raymond Johnson (now in Cuba) about racial discrimination, about criticisms of the Panthers by Stokely Carmichael and about the United Front Against Fascism. He says that Eldridge Cleaver is now somewhere in the third world.
