The black panther cubs making history

“It’s lineage work, it’s not something that I do because I want to, it’s something that I do because I have to,” says Malkia Cyril, whose mom Janet Cyril was an activist in the Black Panther party. Subscribe to The Guardian on YouTube ► http://bit.ly/subscribegdn We spoke to Cyril, Fred Hampton Jr and Ericka Suzanne who are all children of the Black Panther party in our film ‘The Black Panther Cubs: when the revolution doesn’t come’. Born into the Black Panther movement, we join the ‘cubs’ as they continue to wrestle, 50 years later, with the dichotomy of their extraordinary childhoods: the enormous pride and love it gave them as members of the Black Panther family, and the booming loss they endured – of parents, of security, and of the hope for radical change that did not materialise. Watch the video to hear Cyril’s reflections on America’s current crisis.
