    Digging In Deeper
    Thanks for the in depth investigations and including both actors and Chairman’s Fred family. More than educational the podcast does justice to the movie and what happened over 50 years ago in Chicago with the assignations of Chairman Fred Hampton.

    Impartial?
    Is this supposed to be impartial, or just a 1 sided story like we’ve already been told?

    What a history lesson
    I'm not a sucker and I'm weary of how movies take liberties with instory, but I get the general sense that they were interested in getting the story right as far as I can tell. What I don't know is the true story behind whether or not he was drugged since O'Neal isn't around to tell the story and I imagine when someone is drugged they won't necessarily be able, to tell anyone they're been drugged, also, there were several people there so I world venture to say that others world've here aware and I don't , hear anything from the survivors on this.lastly, the word of hamptor's girlfriend would not be what I'd call the most credible because there is always an inclination to make on deceased loved ones into even bigger legends them they already were.those are just . my thoughts. The fact that O'Neal . killed himself after the PBS interview definitely fells me he was deeply troubled about what his involvement was but anything more would be conjecture.

    I Am A Revolutionary! ✊🏿
    Outstanding podcast! After watching the film I throughly enjoyed hearing more about Chairman Fred’s backstory and the beginnings of the film. Having Chairman Fred Hampton Jr. and others on the podcast gives this the accuracy & historical context that is needed to truly tell the story of Chairman Fred Sr., and the Black Panther Party in general. All power to the people! ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
