On this episode of #IDKMYDE, We're diving into a lesser-known slice of history – the birth of the Black Panther Party for Self Defense in Oakland, California, and its roots in the rural, mighty Lowndes County, Alabama.  From the Lowndes County Freedom Organization to Stokely Carmichael's involvement with SNCC and the iconic Black Panther emblem, we're unraveling the threads of political activism that laid the groundwork for the Black Panther movement.  Join the journey of discovery with me as we navigate the complexities of Black Power, political parties, and the dynamic history that shaped our fight against racism. Tune in, and let's explore the untold tales together! IG: @_idkmyde_ | @BdahtTV | @blackeffectSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
