Black Panther Quotes

Text Quotes
You have a 45mm automatic pistol on your lap, and I have a 35mm camera on my lap, and my weapon is just as powerful as yours. (To Black Panther militant Eldridge Cleaver)  (Black Panther Quotes) I am a writer, a professional journalist with serious credentials in Crime, Craziness, and Politics. I have mingled with dangerous criminals and attended many trials . . . from Hell’s Angels, Black Panthers and Chicano street fighters to Roxanne Pulitzer and even Richard Nixon, back in the good old days before he was run out of the White House for fraud, perjury, graft, and criminal negligence.  (Black Panther Quotes) There is a huge fan base for the Black Panther comic and for Marvel as a whole. And I think there is great anticipation across the board for the movie. I think that’s how Marvel is approaching it and I know that’s how I’m approaching it.  (Black Panther Quotes) Having gone through the [Marvel] writer program, I knew Black Panther was in the pipeline and I knew they were big fans of my writing. But I had to compete with the other writers who were put up for it - no one hands out jobs.  (Black Panther Quotes) I’m going to have to call up Spike Lee. I did a cameo for him in ‘Malcolm X,’ and I’m trying to get him to do my life story and the history of the Black Panther Party.  (Black Panther Quotes) My mom used to get involved with the Black Panther activities in Los Angeles. For me it was more about how to view my consciousness on these issues with a biblical framework.  (Black Panther Quotes) Gene Roberts, one of Malcolm’s X chiefs of security, was an NYPD undercover cop. He later went on to bigger things by being a disruptive force inside of the Black Panther Party.  (Black Panther Quotes) The FBI’s Counter-Intelligence Program would work hand-in-hand with police departments, literally planning attacks on Black Panther Party offices throughout the United States of America. They did this over a period of time.  (Black Panther Quotes) Where as you go into playing something like Ulysses [on Black Panther], you go - I’m going to have this haircut and this cloth, you draw from different stimulus.  (Black Panther Quotes) When donors visited the Black Panther Party, they came and saw our real programs, a real clinic, with real doctors and medics, giving service to people.  (Black Panther Quotes) By 1967, J. Edgar Hoover had concluded that the Black Panther Party had replaced the Communist Party as the gravest threat to national security.  (Black Panther Quotes) The Black Panther Party was not a gang. They grew out of a young black intelligentsia on college campuses.  (Black Panther Quotes) If they had not murdered Malcolm X, there probably never would have been a Black Panther Party  (Black Panther Quotes) I think because I came into journalism by way of the Black Panther Party - and not J-school or a corporate bourgeois institution - I tried to do news, writing and reporting that had social, political and racial content and context.  (Black Panther Quotes) Tupac the son of the Black Panther, and Tupac the rider. Those are the two people inside of me. I was raised off those ideals.  (Black Panther Quotes) Some of the free lunch programs were still goin’ on - based on the last leg of the Black Panther Party.  (Black Panther Quotes) Black Panther is a historic opportunity to be a part of something important and special, particularly at a time when African Americans are affirming their identities while dealing with vilification and dehumanization. The image of a black hero on this scale is just really exciting.  (Black Panther Quotes) My mother was a woman. A black woman. A single mother. Raising two kids on her own. So she was dark skinned. Had short hair. Got no love from nobody except for a group called the Black Panthers. So that’s why she was a Black Panther  (Black Panther Quotes) Our leaders were assassinated, one of the things I was reading today was - 28 Panthers were killed by the police but 300 Black Panthers were killed by other Panthers just within - internecine warfare. It just began to seem like we were in an impossible task given what we were facing  (Black Panther Quotes) Fox News never calls up Bobby Seale to articulate a stance in opposition to right-wing conservatives. To me, giving the New Black Panthers a platform on Fox is a subtle tactic to scare people  (Black Panther Quotes) Yes, we do defend our office as we do defend our homes. This is a constitutional right everybody has, and nothing’s funny about that. The only reason they get mad at the Black Panther Party when you do it is for the simple reason that we’re political  (Black Panther Quotes) I think most people, when they think about the Black Panther Party, they think in very abstract, caricatured terms. They think about black fists in the air, but they don’t think about the actual people, and the families, and the relationships  (Black Panther Quotes) We jumped into the protest of Vietnam before the Black Panther Party ever started, before the Black Panther Party was even thought of. In fact, it was late 1965 and 1966 that the anti-Vietnam War, anti-draft to the Vietnam War protest started at University of California, Berkeley  (Black Panther Quotes) There was always music in our home. My mom and my dad loved music. I remember when we were kids we would have these great parties at the house with congas and bongos and African drums, and it was amazing. It wasn’t until years later that I found out that they were actually Black Panther meetings  (Black Panther Quotes) I am proud that my daughter believes, as I do, that hungry children should be fed whether they are Black Panthers or White Republicans  (Black Panther Quotes) I couldn’t wait to be, you know, a Black Panther. Of course they wouldn’t let me join  (Black Panther Quotes) Not since the Black Panthers sailed into their Upper East Side tea party has there been so daffy an exercise in radical chic  (Black Panther Quotes) You can’t imagine hip-hop without the Black Panthers. Today, hopefully, the movement can be an inspiration to people. These were people who made mistakes but they were trying to change things  (Black Panther Quotes)
