Panther Power

JCJ:
Black Panther power wasnโ€™t claws, man. It was breakfast. It was books. It was knowing the law better than the cops who broke it.

BKenyan:
Exactly. Power scared them because it was organized, disciplined, clean. Thatโ€™s why COINTELPRO came down like a plague. Not bullets firstโ€”lies first.

JCJ:
Divide and conquer. Oldest trick in the empire playbook. Take a movement built on unity and turn it inward. Whisper campaigns. Fake letters. Snitches. Ego traps.

BKenyan:
They didnโ€™t just jail Panthers. They fractured the soul. Took neighborhood defense and twisted it into neighborhood war. Set brothers against brothers. Red rag, blue ragโ€”while the FBI watched from the shadows taking notes.

JCJ:
People still think Bloods and Crips just โ€œappeared,โ€ like spontaneous street weather. Nah. That was fallout. Political radiation. A movement bombed from the inside.

BKenyan:
And then Hollywood comes along decades later like, โ€œWhat happened?โ€
Nahโ€”you know what happened. You paid for it.

JCJ:
Thatโ€™s why I donโ€™t buy the fed fairy tales. X-Files bullshit.
Fuck Mulder and Scully.
The truth wasnโ€™t โ€œout thereโ€โ€”it was stamped CONFIDENTIAL and filed in a Hoover cabinet.

BKenyan:
Real conspiracy isnโ€™t aliens. Itโ€™s paperwork. Memos. Budgets. Quiet approvals to ruin lives.

JCJ:
Black Panther power was the antidote: community control, political education, self-respect. That scared them more than any gun ever could.

BKenyan:
Because once people know who they are and whoโ€™s lying to them, the gameโ€™s over.

JCJ:
And thatโ€™s why they never stopped trying to rewrite the story.

BKenyan:
Yeah. But stories have a funny habit.
They come backโ€”strongerโ€”when people finally compare notes.
