A lot of literature seems to either be a pseudo-Hagiography or calls the BPD revisionist trash. Any good respectful critics of the methods and strategies of the Black Panthers and how they could have done better?

    Any substantial criticism that could be levied against them would’ve been during the earlier parts of their historical existence, which they corrected as they matured as a political organization.

        Kinda hard to crit an org like that for failing when they didn’t really have a solid roadmap to follow in the first place. I think they probably did their best to be sustainable but that shit is hard when the entire might of the US empire is actively trying to crush you. I think crit is probably not the right word, maybe lessons would be a more accurate word for those takeaways.
