 come!!\n\nRevolutionary greetings. \nWe hope this message receives you in 
 fighting spirits. On behalf of the Commemoration Committee for the Black 
 Panther Party & the Bay Area Solidarity Committee for Jalil Muntaqim, - and 
 all oppressed, struggling people worldwide, we-would like to ask for your 
 support in our commemoration of the 48th anniversary of the Black Panther 
 Party/ Birthday celebration for New Afrikan Political Prisoner of War Jalil 
 Muntaqim and solidarity with the Trayvon 2. \n\nThe purpose of this event 
 will be to raise awareness about BPP PP/POW’s and Political repression 
 activists face today. From Ferguson to Gaza back to Oakland, \n\nWe will be 
 discussing the history and political repression against the BPP (Speaker: 
 Melvin Dickson, CCBPP) , the framing of Hannibal Shakur and Tanzeen Doha 
 (the Trayvon 2), two Muslim men of color who were arrested during the 
 protests of the acquittal of George Zimmerman for killing Trayvon Martin 
 and were charged with felony vandalism (for supposedly breaking a window), 
 as well as the recent atrocities in Gaza. We also will be featuring 
 conscious music from hip hop and reggae artists.\n\nIn light of the recent 
 incursions in Ferguson & Gaza, and the continued aggression against the 
 People of Oakland, we will also be examining the current situation of 
 oppression and brutality in Ferguson, Oakland & Gaza and how this country 
 is swiftly becoming a police state, with it's treatment of the people, 
 mirroring the tactics and treatment of Gazan's with militarized weapons and 
 brutality. \n\nWhile Gaza is known as the world's largest open air prison, 
 the USA is known for having one of the highest rates of incarceration in 
 the world. The USA incarcerates more people than any other country, and 
 most of these are people of color. These trends and tactics must END and it 
 is incumbent upon we the people, to educate and liberate our people. As 
 Jalil says “We Are Our Own Liberators”!\n\nWe hope to draw correlations 
 between the targeting/framing of BPP members in the 1960’s and 70’s to 
 the criminalization of people who resist capitalism and white supremacy 
 from Oakland to Ferguson to Gaza. This will be an edu-tainment 
 (education/entertainment) event with BPP alumni guest speakers, poetry, 
 live art, hip-hop, reggae, live bands and more. It will also be a 
 fundraiser for Jalil Muntaqim (BPP PP/POW), and the Trayvon 2 (Hannibal 
 Shakur and Tanzeen Doha). \n\nJalil Muntaqim has been a PP/POW since 1971 
 and has remained a very active contributor to the struggle for Black 
 Liberation and the New Afrikan Independence Movement. 
 \n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_StrE2Ia7QY\n\nHannibal Shakur and 
 Tanzeen Doha will be in need of support with funds for living expenses from 
 the cost of these trumped up charges as they prepare to go to trial. In 
 addition to pulling the Trayvon 2 from their families and projects, this 
 case has delayed Tanzeen's studies, forcing him to take out extra loans, 
 and disrupted Hannibal's fight against stage II cancer. Donations are 
 encouraged; however no one will be turned away due to lack of 
 funds.\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1S5DE4I9wzY\n\nWe are trying to 
 get traveling expenses for guest speakers and headlining artists for the 
 concert following the discussion. We are honored to have the opportunity to 
 sponsor Yusef Bunchy Shakur, a Father, Activist, Entreprenuer, Mentor, 
 Speaker, Author and Educator who is the Organizer for Restoring The 
 Neighbor Back To The Hood. Yusef Bunchy Shakur is also the CEO and Founder 
 of Yusef Bunchy Shakur LLC, which provides educational training, and 
 workshops for schools, universities, churches and community organizations. 
 Bands/Musician & Speakers will be announced as we 
 confirm.\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tphaRNcaqU8 \n\nWe hope to 
 provide dinner for everyone who attends as well as distribute produce 
 and/or groceries to the people. We will be raffling and selling 
 revolutionary propaganda and artwork. The date for the event is October 
 10th, 2014.\n\nWe are asking everyone’s support in whatever means they 
 have to do so. Whether it be monetary donations, volunteering for the 
 event, donating resources and/or artistic services, spreading the word, 
 and/or just showing up.\n\nWhat we need\n-Monetary donations for travel 
 expenses of speaker(s)/performer(s)\n-Food donations: cooked to eat at the 
 event and un-cooked for people to take home. \n-Literature and audio visual 
 propaganda to distribute and display at the event.\n-People to spread the 
 word to their communities, organizations, churches, mosques\n-Artist to 
 donate art to raffle and/or sell as a fundraiser.\n\nIf you can help or 
 participate, please contact 510-417-9955 or email
