<p>This special explores revolutionary movements during "the long 1960s" in Amerikkka. We trace the development of two revolutionary traditions: an anti-imperialist third worldist solidarity tradition alongside a party-building revolutionary model for achieving revolution. We examine key organizations including SNCC, RAM, the Black Panther Party, SDS, and the Weather Underground, alongside influential figures like Robert F. Williams, Muhammad Ahmad (Max Stanford), Malcolm X, and Kwame Ture. </p><p>We analyze how these organizations responded to global events like the Bandung Conference, the Cuban Revolution, and independence movements across Africa and Asia. This is the first in a series exploring revolutionary history in Amerikkka.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>TIMESTAMPS</strong></p><p>0:00: Introduction</p><p>3:20: Part 1: The late 1950s</p><p>6:05: Civil Rights Movements and its limitations (SNCC)</p><p>10:20: Robert Williams, NAACP and RAM</p><p>14:20: El-Hajj Malik el-Shabazz (Malcom X)</p><p>20:19: Muhammad Ahmad (Max Stanford) and Revolutionary Action Movement (RAM)</p><p>31:20: Kwame Ture and Black Power</p><p>37:42: Black Panther Party</p><p>46:51: Global 1968</p><p>1:00:15: David Gilbert </p><p>1:08:10: SDS Split</p><p>1:31:10: 1970s, Widespread repression, & COINTELPRO</p><p>1:40:33: Panther 21 Open Letter to Weather Underground.</p><li><p><strong>REFERENCES/RESOURCES</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://thejerichomovement.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Jericho Movement</a></li></ul></li><ul><li><p><a href="https://www.freedomarchives.org/Documents/Finder/Black%20Liberation%20Disk/Black%20Power!/SugahData/Essays/Cruse.S.pdf" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Revolutionary Nationalism and the Afro-American</a> (1962)- Harold Cruse</p></li><li><p><a href="https://abolitionnotes.org/macolm-x/grassroots" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Malcolm X: Message to the Grassroots (1963) </a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://snccdigital.org/inside-sncc/policy-statements/vietnam/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">SNCC Statement on ‘Vietnam’ Jan. 1966</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://viewpointmag.com/2017/12/29/world-black-revolution-1966/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">RAM’s “World Black Revolution” [1966]</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.freedomarchives.org/Documents/Finder/Black%20Liberation%20Disk/Black%20Power!/SugahData/Dissertations/Stanford.S.pdf" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Revolutionary Action Movement (RAM): A Case Study of an Urban Revolutionary </a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://abolitionnotes.org/kwame-ture/destroty-capitalism" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">We Must Destroy the Capitalism System Which Enslaves Us - Kwame Ture in Cuba (1967)</a></p></li></ul><li><ul><li><a href="https://omeka.library.kent.edu/special-collections/files/pdfs/3189.pdf" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">U.S. Imperialism by David Gilbert and David Loud (1968)</a></li></ul><ul><li><a href="https://disruptnow.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/you-dont-need-a-weatherman.pdf" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">"You Don't Need A Weatherman To Know Which Way The Wind Blows" by RYM leadership (The Weathermen) (1969)</a></li></ul></li><li><ul><li><a href="https://abolitionnotes.org/young-lords/13-points" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Young Lords 13-Point Program (1970)</a></li></ul><ul><li><a href="https://rozsixties.unl.edu/items/show/446" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">"New Morning - Changing Weather" by the Weather Underground, 1970</a></li></ul></li><ul><li><p><a href="https://abolitionnotes.org/walter-rodney/george-jackson" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">George Jackson: Black Revolutionary by Walter Rodney (1971)</a></p></li><li><p><a href="https://abolitionnotes.org/georgejackson/dragon" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Remembering the Real Dragon: An Interview with George Jackson (1971)</a></p></li></ul><li><ul><li><a href="https://issuu.com/librarymachinebroke/docs/ny21" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Open Letter to the Weather Underground - the New York Panther 21</a> (1971)</li><li><a href="https://bibliotecadaluta.wordpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/jalilmuntaqimonthebla.pdf" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">On the Black Liberation Army - Jalil Muntaqim, 1979/1997</a></li></ul></li><ul><li><p><a href="https://facom.ufba.br/etnomidia/blackpan.html" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">A Brief History of the Black Panther Party.
