FBI killed Fred Hampton, one of the leaders of the Black Panthers

55
years ago

04 December 1969,

In the United States, Chicago police killed Fred Hampton and Mark Clark of the Black Panthers Party in a raid. Four other members were also injured after forcefully entering home at night.

Fred Hampton was one of the founders and leaders of the party and was only 21 years old when he was killed.

This was an example of the FBI's activity to eliminate the Black Panthers movement. State terrorism was used as a threat against this revolutionary movement.
