@cbcnews: They call themselves the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, but there are concerns their approach could trigger an escalation of violence. For Radio-Canada, journalist Julia Pagé and director Frédéric Lacelle travelled to Philadelphia to meet with the group, which has seen a surge in new members in response to the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. Since recording this story, the group has changed its name to the Black Lion Party for International Solidarity. #news #cbcnews #thenational

For all who don't know, the White Panther party exists, and while they have unrealistic goals, they were founded to support and work with the black panther party for self defense as part of the rainbow coalition
