The Black Panther Party was founded #OnThisDay in 1966.
From a 2016 article commemorating its 50th anniversary:
"The work of the Black Panthers remains important for several reasons. First, they remind us that the problem of police brutality has long been with us […]
Second, the BPP offers a good model of grassroots activism and ideology in practice."
