Join J.J., Ashley, Ayden, & Tyrell as they sit down with former Black Panther Michael Tee and former founding member of BLM Louisville, former member of Board of Directors at the Kentucky Alliance Against Racist & Political Repression and candidate for the Party of Socialism & Liberation (PSL) Vincent Gonzalez. We discuss Tee’s political journey and his involvement with the BPP + other socialist/communist organizations, the gender dynamics of the BPP, and his literary & artistic works, specifically on addressing patriarchy & sex trafficking (CW: references to the suicide of John Geddert & Jeffery Epstein). We also discussed the gender, political and social contradictions in party organizations & capitalism & ways to address them in today’s context. We dive into the co-optation of the BPP & the importance of political education in light of the film Judas & the Black Messiah. We discuss Michael & Vincent’s work in community control of the police, & how that ties into the scope of abolition.
