They can join the Rainbow Coalition if it still exists.

Google the name Fred Hampton and you will learn a lot about what America is.

Judas and the Black Messiah is a cracking film.

You can see why they were fucking terrified of him.

You are very welcome my fellow human. When you are done with Fred Hampton you can maybe look into Leonard Peltier or Mumia Abu Jamal.

RATM was very influential to me back in the 90's

FREE PELTIER AND MUMIA!

Joining with the rainbow means there will be every color of panther.

The pink panther is my idol.
