Black Panthers in Seattle turn to the next chapter
Manage episode 413006909 series 2630758
The Black Panther Party’s Seattle chapter is drumming up new plans, more than 40 years after it disbanded.
A group devoted to preserving Black Panther history plans to open a museum in Pioneer Square early next year, bringing attention to the ways the Panthers influenced Seattle then, and still do now.
Seattle Times Race and Equity Reporter Alexandra Yoon-Hendricks is here to tell us about it, with some help from Elmer Dixon, a founding member of Seattle’s Black Panther chapter.
