Fred Hampton - On The Importance Of Education Prior To Action
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Hampton founded the Chicago chapter of the Black Panther Party in November 1968 where he immediately established a community service program. This included the provision of free breakfasts for schoolchildren and a medical clinic that did not charge patients for treatment. Hampton also taught political education classes and instigated a community control of police.
In the early hours of the 4th December, 1969, the Panther headquarters was raided by the police for the fourth time. The police later claimed that the Panthers opened fire and a shoot-out took place. During the next ten minutes Fred Hampton and Mark Clark were killed. Witnesses claimed that Hampton was wounded in the shoulder and then executed by a shot to the head.
fred had people doing pushups in the morning, prepping food for the community and giving people a purpose who never had one... at 21 years old.
A real revolutionary 😭🙏🏾💯🔥👑🖤
The work is the streets.
People don't realize how much they can accomplish at their age. Perhaps not everyone can be in a position like Fred, but anyone can go out and make a change like him! Its all a matter of determination, energy, and revolutionary spirit.
@@maxwellcraine2357and education!
Keep in mind that this man is 20 years old. amazing.
WOW, thank you--I had NO idea. What a razor sharp mind he had.
People were like this because information and useful knowledge were easily accessible. Education sucks now because that what "they" want. They want you to be dumb and not k knowing you're being fucked by a system who doesn't give a fuck about you.
Wow
✊🏼
That's why cops prey on the youth. Scared as fuck.
Oppressors hated the Chicago of 1968.
They love the Chicago of 2021. Let that sink in

The Importance of Education prior to Action. Fred Hampton was ahead of his time. Brilliant Man
Say word!
Education is a form of action, a form of resistance to the powers that would rather you not have that kind of education!
@RedHen TV Just think about this. Anytime, anywhere, in the world, be it a large movement or small, if capitalism is threatened, white westerners will come and kill you for it.
Yes!
What's interesting about this is that Fred is not preaching blind allegiance to "leaders" as so many of the lost are doing today. He's telling you to think, use your brain. Few people today are giving the youth credit to have the sense to do this.
he was weary of authoritarians and individualistic opportunists ....rightfully so
Yes exactly that's the problem with people following people like Farrakhan, Obama,Alex jon s,, and celebrity's like Jamie fox,these people are puppets or controlled opposition, never support anyone based on what they say to you, support or don't based on ACTIONS
Vernon Hector Which only goes to show that we as youth do try to convey our own individual thinking! But even tho it’s not in the direction older generations would like, it’s still free thinking whatsoever
Ironically (at least according to some), the importance of leaders and blind loyalty is part of what broke the BPP apart.
@@JSmusiqalthinka I'm sure a few assassinations had nothing to do with it.
He’s basically explaining the necessity for an organization and it’s allies to be ON CODE with one another. This requires respect and discipline. It’s amazing to see how brother Hampton grasped this concept at such a young age✊🏾
Fact. As Stokely Carmichael (Kwame Ture) said… “organization over mobilization”
in specific he's talking about vanguard communism where a small group of people spread the ideology, adding new people to the vanguard who in turn spread the ideology, until everyone in the working class is a member of the vanguard and fit to be a part of the "dictatorship of the proletariat." it's necessary for revolution and for the aftermath of the revolution, because if one holds that power one must have the knowledge to use it effectively
The importance of Marxism and leftist education so you don’t end up with black right wing movements…. That’s how you end up with Hebrew Israelites and Kanye types!
Right wing and revolutionary movements DO NOT MIX!
The crazy thing about this is that we're watching a YOUNG PRODIGY. This man is only about 20 years old in this video...lets just sit back and appreciate that. Him and Pac are/were kindred spirits. Give thanks for this young brother...he shows that no matter your age if you’re serious about helping oppressed people theres no limit to your mind.
A fucking genius. If he wasn't assassinated I truly believe the world would be a better place
I love Tupac and believe he the greatest rapper but he can’t hold a candle to Brother Fred
@@1kingzeus tupac was also a communist who grew up surrounded by black liberation army and black panther party members. theyre not the same but similar goal
@@sarah-cv8cp Tupac in rhetoric embraced revolutionary ideals, but in practice embraced the very same capitalistic mindset that destroys black and brown communities
No no take Pac out of this. Fred wasn't no actor. Fred was no clown. Not saying Pac wasn't brilliant at all, I'm saying, he did some dumb things that Fred wouldn't ever have done. Fred acted like a man not a fool.
Brilliant intellect this young wise man had. He proves that this so called 'education" most people received today is nothing but a vocational training to turn people into obedient political subjects.
The best thing we can do to Honor this #Revolutionary brother is to continue his work ✊ #PowerToAllThePeople
Read Marx!
WHO's Here after seeing JUDAS and The BLACK MESSIAH???
That movie should have been 3 hours long, I wanted more speeches of Fred and more insight into his remarkable mind
I haven’t seen it yet, but saw the interview about it on tds. Fascinating man. What a loss for the people. 😢❤️
As a young adult, this makes me proud to be a African American i just wish everyone could understand the true importance of education....
So young so wise so needed!! Everything he said was on point. It angers me to tears that they took you away from us!! Rest in paradise Warrior King!! ❤️
I agree, the best way to Honor Fred Hampton the(Revolutionary) is to continue his work #PowerToThePeople 👊... You can kill a revolutionary, but you can't kill the revolution...."Fred Hampton"
I agree, the best way to Honor Fred Hampton the(Revolutionary) is to continue his work #PowerToThePeople 👊... You can kill a revolutionary, but you can't kill the revolution...."Fred Hampton"
Fred Hampton, just about 20 years old by November 68. Such was his charisma. Respect!!!
This is the POWER that THEY don’t want US to have and this is the REASON he was killed. Rest in POWER brother ✔️
Fred Hampton was a great example of the Good Die Young ✊🙏
Yea but he didn't just die he was Assassinated 🤔
he soooooo advanced a rare type of fire in him
This man was too powerful and too intellectual no wonder he died. RIP Fred Hampton!
He died because our capitalist neo fascist government is intimidated by any half successful Marxist organization! And Fred Hampton was the embodiment of Marxist principles lived in one’s real life!!
He seemed like such a real dude... intelligent, passionate and well spoken. I first learned about COINTELPRO and the murder of this young man in college and I didn't believe it at first. I remember being pissed at my professor for even suggesting our government was capable of that until I continued to read about it. It was because of that story that I remain incredibly skeptical about the police's official reports on guys like Freddy Grey and Michael Brown and all the countless other cases of police brutality.
Kyle Archer do you believe it now...or do you still sleep with your head in the ground
IAMTHATIAM ETERNAL re-read his comment fully. He already answered your question before you asked it.
New Wave skeptical about it doesn't mean that he believes totally..it's nothing to be skeptical about it is what it is
IAMTHATIAM ETERNAL He already said he believes it now. What are you talking about?
New Wave one word ,Skeptical...I don't think that he doesn't know what is happening..but for the sake of argument when you are skeptical about anything doesn't mean that you are totally convinced..look up the word skeptical...in the case of Brother Fred he is convinced which leads him to be skeptical about the others ,do you follow me?
I've watch this clip again and I am convinced the men presenting this plan to the honorable chairman Hampton were Ferderal Agents. The tone that they converse with Fred shows a contempt with him and his members also they seem suspecously nervous as though they may be found out. Whatever be damned to those traitors who set him up. Rest Brother Chairman you live in my memory.
Agree, they were evil.
Lol I can feel that. Just something about the video makes me think they were like "oh shit he's smarter than we thought"
I seen it too , the look in his eyes he should've just got up and left the room.
I smelled Fed all over them. They weren't as fluid with their game as Fred was.....
Only around 5000 views for this video reflects the times we are living in. I am sure there are still young people as informed and smart as Fred Hampton around today but the current global socio economic and political environment has caused many to become apethetic. The systematic dumbing down of young people around the whole globe is taking a heavy toll.
Genesis 12: 1-3...R✊🏾P
Fred Hampton
📰
When the God wants you to move out your comfort zone you better know it's for something big...😌
Someone in the comment section said he was only 20 years old in this video and I instantly thought about the 20 year olds today despite of the K2 take over don't sleep on the youth alot of them out here are very Intelligent and packed with common sense instead of a gun...What we learned from Fred in this is clip is yes every voice should be heard as well as quiet when one is making a point that benefits everyone..And thats why I really hope that the Communities in Chicago Philadelphia St Paul and Minneapolis get started..Thank you Lord for creating Fred and this video because it really starts with our minds first🖤
God Bless you All...☀️
I LOVE YOU...Chi-town
You can't even Tell he was 20 yrs old. The level of Maturity is Through the Roof!
YOU CAN NOT PUT INTO WORDS WHAT THIS MAN WAS,WHAT HE REPRESENTED,HOW MUCH CLASS,BEAUTY,SOUL, INTELLIGENCE,UNDERSTANDING, COMPASSION,TOO MUCH THE MAN WAS A GREAT LEADER, GREAT SPEAKER FOR THE PEOPLE.RIP Brother Fred Hampton
I love this brother.. The good men are always taken too soon..😔😔✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾
DAMN! Now I understand why Fred Hampton was such a threat!!!! HIS "WHY" wasn't filled with hate. It was to educate! The worse thing a person can do to his oppressor is to inform and educate the oppressed! Not rebel with just violence. But to know why and how to defeat the oppressor! DAMN MAN! AND HE WAS ONLY 21..... JUST IMAGINE!!!!!😔💯
Any communist revolutionary movement is a threat to a capitalist system! Black panthers were very powerful in that way!
Most people today don’t know they were Marxist and they’ve been yt washed so that blk movements now a days have no leftism in them at all!
We’ve got a bunch of pro black nazi types running around 😂😂
It’s ridiculous
03:45 he pretty much explains every mainstream rapper we have now.
Activity without political education and revolutionary theory just leads to burn out and eventual sell out.
I LOVE THIS INTELLIGENT
BLACK KING.
R.I.P MR. FRED HAMPTON
I love coming back and watching this...
what he says about Castro was prophetic
From The Westside With Love ... OnGod. That lil part was like beautiful, feel me??
We as Americans have got to get beyond the abstract arguments and start talking about the bread and butter realities of what he’s talking about.
This man was wise beyond his years..barely 20 yrs old & equipped with knowledge understanding & discernment yet still serious business. Wish i could've met this brother
Ok! Power to the people🙏🏻
Lilia Maria POWER to you and all people
Power to the people.
He was a genius
He was educated in leftist political theory. That and great at making people believe they were going to change the world. We need to groom more like him, and that starts with grooming ourselves.
His words are still very much relevant to this day. Why? Not because he was ahead of his time as so many of us like to say, but because there has been no fundamental change. The means of the system may have been tweak via reforms, but ends of the system is very much the same. When this is so, an analysis of this system will always hold relevancy no matter when it was given. Continue resting in power, comrade Fred Hampton!
Words can't describe what you did for the people ❤✊🏿
It's not enough to "wow" over these videos. The Black Panther party must be revisited!!!
FACTS!!
20-21 years old with a mind and spirit of an elder. Today 20-21 years only focus is getting fresh, girls, and poppin molly. We really need to rebuild.
smith lovy exactly. I'm 20 going on 21 and have had a black nationalist class conscious mindset since HS and there are BLM organizers younger than me. But I do feel that during this time oppression was a little bit more noticeable than it is at the present moment,thus a Fred Hampton was more common back then as opposed to now.
Yea I disagree with this statement completely. Well when you have a system that systematically oppresses black and brown folks, disenfranchises them, prisons across the street from their neighborhood, and sends them messages of ONLY a few outcomes (of course they're negative) for their lives.
1.) Locked up in Prison
2.) Shot and killed (don't you dare say "black on black" crime)
I get that but they were oppressed back then as well. They were being jailed for much more minor things and publicly disrespected by cops and white folks on a regular. Jobs for them werw scarce as well. That oppression caused this young man to speak up. So there should be know excuses for a young man today. The struggles has changed a little but now they have more knowledge and resources.. Let me just say I do know a few young men that make the most of their knowledge
Then why don't you as an elder try and lead them down a right path?
@@sweetvictory89 PREACH🗣️
W.e.b. Dubois earlier said the same thing about the talented tenth. He didn't realize fancy degrees weren't enough that people had to have compassion and empathy as well and that only comes with being educated on the social reality.
He was a gifted leader. True leaders never live long because they have so much wisdom. Fred Hampton, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr.
LENGENDARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fred Hampton my hero and brother gone but not forgotten.
I love him.......This was a young man speaking with Authority&knowledge&Wisdom at his time....I Love U FRED HAMPTON R.I.P
Rest in power comrade.
he was very handsome
We need you Mr.Hampton..
They kill our hero's but they will never kill their ideas. Fred lives!
Break it down, Fred! You still live in our hearts and minds!
Happy Birthday Legend! We still fighting the fight.
All Power to All the People✊🏿
he would have been so great!
i wasnt alive to witness this, what a hero
His biggest threat was he could translate political sense into street literature that could be understood
THE POWER OF EDUCATION AND CRITICAL POLITICAL THINKING!
This brother is always on point.
Education Prior To Action 💯
His cause of death just sitting behind him. What a man Fred Hampton was.
Rest In Power Chairman Fred 50 years later you are still celebrated and relevant to the people Power to the People!
Spitting NOTHING BUT FACTS!
Fred hampton,tupac, malcom x, huey newton, I didn't list everyone but these came to mind as military minded
education is liberation .. theres 2 parts to it though, the shit u hear in school and then theres the TRUTH u gotta find out on your own.
yea man most of the mistakes in revolutionary movements is there is no strategy or plan for the post revolutionary movement. Thats an educational thing
Fred out here dropping knowledge on Papa Doc in Haiti and shit. This boy was woke! Got here after watching The black messiah...
Fred Hampton: "What about this bank thing? What's up with that?
Looks like Fred is getting a movie. Apparently it’s in production now! Really hope the movie delivers on his life and the important people in his live.
I am apprehensive of the media being able to correctly represent Chairman Fred Hampton's message and the message of the struggle
Anybody got suggestions of what to watch instead?
@@ilovefriedchickenyeh agreed
@@martharigby they did a good job with it i thought.
We don't need a Hollywood version of his life we need to read books and watch old films like these and stop relying on those man made fairytales
I see people pointing out the fact that he was so young, as if he was an anomaly. His political understanding however is a result of the same Political education he spoke about. While his charisma and ambition propelled him into leadership his clarity was refined by the Black Panther Party.
So relevant today
This dude is a genius, and a foundational inspiration for me. As you see I ain't Black, but I was always a staunch supporter of the Black struggle. Fact is: I became familiar with Panthers way before I became familiar with Marxism-Leninism, and later, Marxism-Leninism-Maoism.
Long live the struggle of black people!
Long live the struggling people wordwide !
It's for the people, Run by the people, for the people
Powerful..🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love u Fred 😢
No doubt on why the system killed this man RIP we need our youth on this level
damn he was fucking brilliant ..... and so young......and america killed him for it
Today's civil rights leaders is a joke!🤦🏿♀️🤦🏿♀️
Yep. That's amazing to me. He must have begun his education early.
The US Gov knew Fred was more powerful than Martin or Malcom and took him out as soon as they could.
I don't know about more powerful but they were scared of Fred.
Damn, this young man was too woke for this country. Just an amazing mind. We need people like him now more than ever.
He lives in you.
Comrade Fred was the man!
Hmm this man saw two steps ahead. Amazing to watch.
He peeped they’re conning asses from the rip. These guys was about the money..They didn’t say to shore up the economy in our community but living room furniture?
Amazing! So much wisdom, insight and foresight - and to only be 20 yrs old.
These comments prove what he said is right lol. People taking his words and applying them to nationalistic pro-capitalist agendas or even just straight up neoliberals is cringe.
Americans are too far gone
There's a resurgence of socialism now. More and more people are getting educated. Just look at the arrival of Jacobin Magazine and other leftwing media. Spirits up comrades. We will liberate all the people from capitalist oppression.
King & Fred!!!!!
This is good stuff. I'll be pointing people to this footage. Thank you.
"But the Black Panthers did influence more Marxist/Socialistic beliefs on the black community today, that really didn't benefit blacks in anyway." Those programs fed fellow Blacks and provided services that allowed them to rely on their community and not government. Now we have greater government dependency.
A gem.
...why I love him...
Also, how has capitalism worked for the Black community? We have a few token Blacks who are successful who don't give back or reinvest, further separating lower class from upper class.
Powerful political analysis!
Thank you
I am a Kenyan and i can tell you Johnston Kamau aka Jomo Kenyatta did not form the MAU MAU....He was actually against it until 1952. That's a misconception that needs to be corrected. And he was very educated. The British sent him to Europe to groom him to serve their interests once they left the Kenyan colony
Fred Hampton's political time was the late 1960s so I think being 10+ after MAU was for it, he's good to say what he said. maybe im wrong.
Fred Hampton's point was that Kenyatta had the WRONG education, he was not educated to think in terms of community, empathy and social justice. This lack of genuine education meant that he easily devolved into a self-serving dictator leaving the average Kenyan no more better off than before. Just because someone went to a posh university, doesn't mean they are educated.
Man who really wanted to unite the People
Brilliant young man RIP 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Wow... That was Beatiful
damn hes good how old was he.. 20? look at the average 20 they dont talk like this.
abijahaj32 i do old soul
How do you think that happened? You blaming young people today for 50 years of the intentional coordinated dismantling, disarming, jailing, murdering, and political persecution of all the freedom fighters who actually organized and taught young people to organize? I'm 39 and I'm tired of hearing this.
@@selalewis9189 💯
fred acknowledges the reason. education. specific to the revolution, political and economic education. they dont teach marx in school and the capitalist dont want them to. theres a war against US public schools. capitalist dont want to fund them, they want to profit off school with their private institutions. and what do you think the rhetoric is in those classes?
My leadership ♥️🖤💚💯💯💯💯
His words need to be heard
Stand for nothing..fall for anything... this man live and died for what he stood for...rip Mr Hampton
Very smart well educated young man!
“Fred Hampton was an angel, may his name ring”
The most important BPs leader.
Bruh died at 21......21! Assaniated at 21! He was fighting for his people more than the poverty pimp pastors we have in this day and age!
