Remembering my dad doing parent teacher conferences in middle school where they had him come in because I nearly started a riot or something and before they could even start talking he demanded they all call him Doctor Blancato and would rant about how "appalling" the science program was.

When we think of The Black Panthers, this is usually the image that comes to mind. Did you know they also:
Operated free clincs;
Taught self-defense classes;
Fed kids breakfast before school;
Delivered groceries to the elderly;
Started a free school;
Started the nutrition program for new Moms and their babies which later became
WIC.
This has been your Black History
Moment.
