FRED HAMPTON JR. ON HIS FATHER'S MURDER
On December 4, 1969, the Chicago Police Department brutally assassinated Fred Hampton, the chairman of the local chapter of the Black Panther Party. At just 21 years old, Hampton had already established himself as a visionary organizer and revolutionary thinker. As the chairman of the Panthers, he formed a cross-racial coalition known as the Rainbow Coalition, which included the Puerto Rican Young Lords and the white Appalachian Young Patriots. This coalition posed one of the most significant challenges to Chicago's white-supremacist police state.
Hampton was drugged and remained unconscious while the Chicago police sprayed his apartment with over 100 bullets. His fiancée, Akua Njeri (formerly Deborah Johnson), was fortunate to escape with her life; she was more than eight months pregnant with their son, Fred Hampton Jr., who has dedicated his life to upholding his father's revolutionary legacy.
In this video, Fred Hampton Jr. returns to the site of the Chicago Police Department’s crime and vividly recounts the details of the raid, connecting it to the centuries-long history of state terror against Black people in the United States.

Black Panther Party deputy chairman Fred Hampton was drugged by the FBI then assassinated by local police on this day 56 years ago.
He was only 21 years old.
Listen to his words and see if you can discern why he would be their target.

Everyone must make the time or nobody makes it
