#PeoplesHistory | Today we remember Fred Hampton, deputy chairman of the national Black Panther Party (BPP) and chair of the Illinois chapter, and Mark Clark, member of the BPP. The Chicago Police killed Hampton and Clark in what many have called a summary execution.
Hampton, who was assassinated by the state at age 21, was a Marxist-Leninist revolutionary who built broad unity across the working class to fight the systems of white supremacy and capitalism in the United States.
