Amy Fenton’s Reviews > The Assassination of Fred Hampton: How the FBI and the Chicago Police Murdered a Black Panther > Status Update

Any true student of US history should read this book. Anyone who has uttered “all lives matter” should read this book, and rethink that response. This book provides a first hand account of government pushback (by way of systemic corruption) to the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. Chairman Fred Hampton was only 21 years old when he was murdered by his government. 21.

Rest in Power to the Revolutionary.
