"Comrade Sisters: Women of the Black Panther Party" Panel Discussion

Many of us have heard these three words: Black Panther Party. Some know the Party's history as a movement for the social, political, economic, and spiritual upliftment of Black and indigenous people of color - but to this day, few know the story of the backbone of the Party: the women. While these remarkable women of all ages and diverse backgrounds were regularly making headlines agitating, protesting, and organizing, these same women were building communities and enacting social justice. Comrade Sisters is their story.
Hosted by Stanford Libraries, view an exciting discussion featuring co-authors Stephen Shames and Ericka Huggins of the newly released book, Comrade Sisters: Women of the Black Panther Party. Mr. Shames and Ms. Huggins are joined by two other former Black Panther Party members, M. Gayle Asali Dickson and Rosita Thomas for the discussion.
