The New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense (NBPP) is a movement for the civil rights of blacks in the USA and calls itself part of the Black Power Movement .

The movement is in the tradition of the Black Panther Party of the 1960s. However, today's activists hardly have any personal overlaps with the activists of the Black Panther movement. The organization was founded in 1989 in Dallas , Texas . It takes up the Black Panther Party, which was dissolved in 1982, in language, attitude, demands, design and demands.

development

Some NBPP leaders blamed a " Jewish conspiracy " for the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks .

The New Black Panthers are calling for a. black Americans to arm and protect themselves against police attacks. In 2016, they called on blacks in Cleveland to arm themselves to protect themselves against attacks on the sidelines of Donald Trump's Republican Convention .

Micah Johnson , who shot and killed six police officers in Dallas in 2016, attended NBPP training courses in Houston for six months prior to his attack . Houston NBPP founder Quanell X said Johnson was a member but was later expelled.

aims

The New Black Panther Party (NBPP) is calling for a separate nation for black Americans. In NBPP's 10 Point Platform , which picks up on the 10-point platform of the Black Panther Party, it is claimed that blacks can claim their own state and can make their own laws. All black prisoners should be extradited to the Black Nation's jurisdiction . The NBBP is demanding reparations for the enslavement of blacks by the United States, Europe and "the Jews".

criticism

The New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense (NBPP) is partially accused of separatism. The Anti-Defamation League accuses her of notoriously calling for violence against whites and Jews.

In doing so, the movement would use language and the worldview of "reverse racism". In the NBPP document The Nationalist Manifesto , she accuses the “diabolical white man” of preparing a genocide against blacks, as it has already perpetrated against the indigenous peoples of America and the Australian Aborigines .
