*Unfortunately, we must report that we’ve lost a young giant filmmaker in
Gregory Everett who recently passed away as a victim of covid19. Folks, this is a heartbreaking story to write about but I shall attempt to do my best.
I first came to know this young and promising man through the late Roland Freeman as Gregory was in the beginning stages of putting together his award-winning documentary “41st And Central” a project that he literally put his whole soul into that chronicles the history of the Los Angeles Chapter of the Black Panther Party and it’s rise under the leadership of Alprentice “Bunchy” Carter who was eventually gunned down along with John Huggins on the campus of UCLA January 17, 1969.
