Black Panther Party member "Lil" Bobby Hutton was murdered on this day in 1968 by the Oakland Police. He was the first person to join the party, the 1st treasurer, and the 1st member to be murdered by the racist police. Rest in Power.

We decided to tell this story through the POV of an activist who came of age during the Trayvon Martin era, D'atra Jackson (@MerQueenGangsta). She was in grad school when Trayvon Martin was killed, which was one of many reasons she decided to become an activist and organizer.
