holy shit my dude black panther style means irl black panthers from actual history not marvel movies ffs
then i know even less, what and how do they do?
They were a group of black people who went around and did stuff for their local black communities. Specifically in this case, we're referring to how they would ride around and watch cops so that they wouldn't brutalize black community members. They also did food for kids and stuff like that. They got shut down by the FBI because they were feeding too many people (quite literally, the FBI admitted to it, look it up).
the behaviour definitely checks out as american. I did not know this (not an american, and do not know much of american black history). Thanks
Most Americans also don't know about them. Its rather sad, cause as far as I understand, they were one of the most successful groups both from a communist and from an anti-racism perspective.
