  I'm not a heavy drinker but the day he was murdered I got drunk.I haven't been drunk since. It affected me horribly. He was still fighting the fight while many of us black people went on about our daily business. Meanwhile he was still be persecuted with all our weight on his shoulders! I still cry I still cry. I'm in the fight to and I will never stop until it is my time to leave here!

  The fact that Dr Huey was illiterate as a teen yet went on to earn a PhD and change the American landscape by starting the BPP and incorporating the breakfast programme that has helped millions and millions of children, amongst MANY other things, and he never lived to see his 50th earth strong just shows us what an amazing man he was. To go from being systemically ignored by society, to a revolutionary threat to America, and by extension the world, while enacting sweeping change will never not blow my mind. Rest in Peace, Huey P. Thank you for everything.

  The media made this man seem like he was a racist and a thug but he was so much the opposite. Great leader and human.
