Charlotte O'Neal visits the US to talk about "A Panther in Africa"!

Friday Apr 16, 7PM @ Red Emma's

We've screened the great documentary "A Panther in Africa" years ago -- it's the story of Pete and Charlotte O'Neal, who fled the US in 1969, after Pete was arrested due to his work as chairman of the Kansas City Chapter of the Black Panther Party,   for Tanzania, where they established the United African Alliance Community Center, still in operation today.  As an exiled fugitive, unless the US gets its act together and establishes amnesty for political prisoners and victims of COINTELPRO, Pete's not able to come to the United States, but his wife Charlotte, herself an equally amazing activist and organizer (as well as an artist and musician!), will be touring the US this spring, and we're happy to welcome her to Red Emma's for a screening and discussion of "A Panther in Africa", which documents the O'Neals life and work in exile. More info on the tour and the UAACC here.
