Memory Activism: The Panther Platform, Police & Prisons

Adam Carpinelli interviews Damaris Webb, Bruce Poinsette and Michael Bernard Stevenson Jr. from The Vanport Mosaic, a local organization celebrating Black History Month with special community discussions on prisons and policing.   The community organizing event  featured three days of memory activism linking the Black Panther Party’s 10-Point Plan to the challenges we face today with Mr. Kent Ford, founding member of Portland's chapter of the '60s-era black empowerment organization, and invited guests for theater performances, presentations, conversations, tabling, and screenings.
