Com this is nbc 10 news. It has been almost 50 years since the formation of the often controversial black panther party. And while the group may have dissolved years ago, its cofounder continues his commitment to seek the truth. Hes still speaking about social justice issues like voting rights, education, employment and equality. And hes in philadelphia for this weekends black history and culture showcase. So, thank you so much for being with us today. We appreciate it. I know you speak a lot about the movement as you have the benefit of looking back and seeing it in its entirety. Uhhuh. How do you describe it to people . Would you have done anything differently . When i started the black panther party, at that time i was working for the City Government<\/a> of oakland, california, and the black Power Movement<\/a> concept had hit the scene in 65. And i said we have no policy. Meaning i did a demographic check there were only 50 black folks dually elected to Political Office<\/a> throughout the whole United States<\/a> of america. In the country. From the local city only 50. So i talk about political policy, so i created the black panther party, a political party. Yeah. And we used technique after we researched every law because we were very, very legal. We were so legal we were able to patrol and observe the police the way we did for six months. We didnt do it everyday because we were a ragtag organization. We didnt have 20 or 30 members hanging around. But my point is it captured the imagination of the people. Yeah. So when the cops would say you have no right to observe me, we said, no, california Supreme Court<\/a> ruling says every citizen has a right to observe a Police Officer<\/a> carrying out their duties as long as theyre standing a reasonable distance away, blah, blah, blah. You knew it. Right. But our objective here was just to capture the imagination of the people because i wanted to organize a political electoral machine so we could get more political seats. You know, you have to have the seats that make the laws and make the rules. And that sets policy. And thats why i started the black panther party. And so now fast forward to now. How do you think were doing on your path, on everyones path to fight against inequality, to fight against racism . There are over 20,000 black folks now dually elected to Political Office<\/a>. Plus a lot of latino, plus women. You know women were very underrepresented. Uhhuh. So now we have the same problems, we have people to register to vote, now we got governors and stuff on the right wing repressing the vote. Not only for the black community but for all other groups of people. So these are the same problems and we have very few progressives, very few progressives. Maybe 80 or 90 people in the house of representatives progressive type people who will vote whether theyre green party, whether theyre independent. We need three times that many. Right. Right. Now, i could listen to you talk all day and i know that youre speaking at the black history and culture showcase. Right. This weekend. Tell me about that. Well, this is black history culture showcase. Im autographing a bunch of books and historical posters from the 1960s protest movement era. Im going to talk to people and young folks especially about black lives matter. Im going to talk also about my program of trying to set up an environmental renovation youth jobs programs because when we Start Talking<\/a> about Climate Change<\/a> as interconnected with economic and human rights because thats exactly what it is. But then how do we do this . We have to employ young people, black, white, blue, yellow, green, polka dot, into this framework dealing with the climate and dealing with the environment. So im a programs person. So anybody knows my history of the black panther party, i created programs. I had 22 different kinds of grassroots programs along with breakfast for children, free health clinic, even one organization in Winston Salem<\/a> completed an ambulance program, got budgets, et cetera, et cetera, even young folks the brothers and sisters this rank and file i love them who worked and did the program that i articulated. Well, if young people want to come out, if anybody wants to come out i want to give our viewers the details.

If youre a little confused with the tax rules, nbcs bob hanson brings us this report to answer some of the most common tax questions. Reporter nobody likes doing their taxes, especially people who owe money. So if you file for an extension, does that mean you can wait to pay what you owe . Thats another myth. People think that extension to file is an extension to pay, and its not. Reporter you must pay all or at least part of which you owe by april 15th. But what about deductions . Most parents claim their children, but if they care for elderly grandparents, can they also claim grandma and grandpa as a deduction . They cant make over 4,000 in taxable income, but they do not have to live with you. And you have to provide over half of their support. Reporter lisa green lewis with turbo tax says the same rules apply to the support of a nonrelative, a boyfriend or girlfriend. You may be able to claim them as a deduction, but they must live with you for 12 months. And speaking of support, can you claim a pet . Can you writeoff your dog for all the time, food and medical expenses you shell out . Your pet is not a writeoff. Reporter unless that pet is for specific medical reasons like a seeing eye dog, or protects a business, like a guard dog. Now, theres no question your parents will file their taxes, but what if youre a student and you dont make much money . Should you still file . Lisa lewis says if you make any taxable income, then you should file a return. The irs already has enough of our money. Every year they claim that they have about its close to 1 billion in unclaimed refunds. And thats predominantly College Students<\/a> who have not filed. That was nbcs bob hansen reporting. The deadline here is april 18th. You get three extra days because of emancipation day, a d. C. Holiday which we celebrate on friday april 15th this year bumping tax day to the following monday.

She was considered a radical in the time we never would consider her that today. But these were the women who really pushed it over the edge and made a 72year campaign successful.

And she worked for that passage until she died in 1977. It has not passed. And its not yet a part of our constitution. And thats what she would want me to be talking about today.
