On this day, 12 May 1971, a group of 21 New York City Black Panthers called the Panther 21 were acquitted on charges of conspiring to bomb buildings after it was shown that undercover police had infiltrated the Panthers, planned the violence, and then framed the Panther 21.
More than two years earlier, on April 2, 1969, the Panther 21 were arrested and eventually indicted on 156 charges that accused them of planning to bomb police stations and department stores. All faced multiple life sentences, and many of the Panther 21, including a pregnant woman named Afeni Shakur, spent months in abusive and dilapidated jails awaiting a verdict.
The arduous 8-month trial of the Panther 21 became the longest in New York State history. When the trial finally neared its close, Shakur, who was 8 months pregnant at the time, chose to personally cross-examine Ralph White, one of the undercover police who had arrested her. She got White to admit that it was actually the undercover officers within the Panthers who planned the bomb threat and attempted to incite violence among the Panthers. Under Shakur’s questioning, White even admitted that he found the work of the Black Panthers “beautiful and revolutionary.”
Before the jury left to deliberate their verdict, Shakur said to them:
“Let history record you as a jury that would not kneel to the outrageous bidding of the state. Show us that we were not wrong in assuming that you would judge us fairly.”
The jury’s deliberation lasted less than half an hour. Unanimously, the Panther 21 were found not guilty on all 156 charges.
Just over a month after this, Shakur gave birth to her child. Wanting him to “have the name of revolutionary, indigenous people in the world,” she named him after an Inca revolutionary who fought the Spanish Empire: Tupac.
