The black panther party’s tactics in the war on poverty included ?

The Black Panther party (BPP) was formed to address police violence and nagging inequalities that punctuated African Americans' lives.

Explanation:

far from being anti-white, the party addressed issues of poverty and inequality that affected communities of color. The founders, Huey Newton and Bobby Sealed founded the party in Oakland, CA in 1966. They were particularly concerned with issues of police brutality, which was a major problem in Oakland and nationwide at the time. Citing the Second Amendment, point #7 of their 10 point blueprint directed black people to "arm themselves for self defense."

In addition to guns, under the open carry laws in California at the time, members would also arm themselves with law books in order to shine a light on police misconduct and for informing those being stopped by the police or arrested of their Constitutional rights.

The history of the party offers a unique parallel to our current movement of the Black Lives Matter proponents today, including the use of social media which is designed to focus the public's attention on the continued unequal treatment of people of color and especially the wave of police violence brought against them.
