Eight former Black Panthers were arrested January 23rd in California, New York and Florida on charges related to the 1971 killing of a San Francisco police officer. Similar charges were thrown out after it was revealed that police used torture to extract confessions when some of these same men were arrested in New Orleans in 1973.
A short documentary, Legacy of Torture: The War Against the Black Liberation Movement, as well as a film featuring former Black Panther political prisoner Herman Bell, will be screened, followed by presentations and discussion.
Donations will be accepted for legal defense funds.
Presented by Certain Days, Kersplebedeb, 2110 Centre, Montreal ABCF, and COBP.
