PAGE 2 THE BLACK PANTHER SATURDAY, DECEMEER ft), tree (LETTER FROM THE WIFE OF W.E.B. Du BOIS) Cleopatra Hotel Midan Al-Tahrir Cairo, Egypt Oct. 21, 1968 My dear son; Please convey to our Black Olympics Game Heroes my heartiest congratulations and my deepest thanks. We out this way salute them for the honor, credit and dignity they have brought to the dark peoples of the world. They proved their worth as fine athletes - then they proved their worth as men and women of courage, determination and high v ision. Their Black Power demonstration soared to the skies far above all the Olympic banners, and flags - it was heard around the world far be- yond the loudest trumpets. I greet these young Blacks with joy for my- self and for my husband. I can hear His voice hailing them and saying proudly: “Souls of Black Folk, march on, march on towards the Dawn of Our New World!” We must unite all our efforts against any refusal our enemies may undertake. United we are strong! United we are the world’s ma- jority. 1 am going to take this matter up with the Afro-Asian Peoples Solidarity Organization for some kind of endorsement. Please see that this reaches the athletics and the public. You may publish this letter anywhere. | am proud and happy to tell you I am with you ALL THE WAY, FOR BLACK POWER. Shirley Graham DuBois Cairo, Egypt CARLOS 4 KATHLEEN CLEAVER COMMUNICATION SECRETARY BLACK PANTHER PARTY ABOUT ELDRIDGE. . . Eldridge Cleaver, the single most powerful, compelling, and cogent leader for black free- dom in the country, is being sought by the com- bined forces of the city, state, and federal pig agencies. He faces trial in Coakley's kangaroo courthouse in Oakland December 2 on charges of attempted murder of the Oakland Pigs, and if convicted would face life im ment, However, if the present escalation of son the Black Panther Party by bigger and fatter layers of pigs increases, Brother Eldridge might not live to go to trial. The writ of habeas corpus which released him from prison grant- ed by Superior Court Judge Raymond Sher- win in Solano County was denied by the Dis- trict Court of Appeals in San Francisco. The three-pig panel of state judges handed down their verdict to return Eldridge Cleaver to prison in sixty days on September 27 — the very same day Huey P. Newton was sent to prison by Oakland's hatchet pig, Judge Mon- roe Friedman. For the past two years that he had been living in San Francisco on parole, the local agents of the California Adult Authority, par- ole pigs, have been responsible for corralling our keader and denying him his constitutional and human rights as a matter of course. Ap- parently, the conniving federal, state and city pigs have felt that the chains of parole are too weak for this ex-convict black man and have linked up additional pig agencies to hold him down. As long as Eldridge Cleaver remains free to lead our revolutionary struggle for human freedom and black liberation, he will continue to stand as a« shield between the black com- munity and the racist pig power structure ay they direct the full blast of racist repression against him. If these foul swine had succeeded in eliminating Brother Eldridge, our most powerful leader, it would have left the rest of our leadership exposed to the full weight of their onslaught.

PRISONER IS ID “IT IS ONLY A MAT- TER OF TIME UNTIL THE QUESTION OF THE PRISONER'S DEBT TO SOCIETY VERSUS SOCIETY'S DEBT TO THE 2CTED FORCEFULLY INTO NATIONAL AND STATE POL- ITICS, INTO THE CIVIL AND HUMAN RIGHTS STRUGGLE, AND INTO THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF THE BODY POLITIC. IT IS AN EXPLOSIVE ISSUE WHICH GOES TO THE VERY ROOT OF AMERICA’S SYSTEM OF JUSTICE, THE STRUCTURE OF CRIMINAL LAW, THE PREVAILING BELIEFS AND ATTITUDES TOWARD A CONVICTED FELON.” (SOUL ON ICE, P.59) Eldridge Cleaver anade the decision to politically exile himself November 27th, on the basis that the Adult Authority made an outhew deci stom, and that he hae heen denied hix constitutional right to due protest of law. The revocation of Cleaver’s parole wee illegal. because no parole violation was committed. The Adult Authority parole board has tied to maintain that Cleaver violated his parole by having a rifle in his possession, and by associating with individuals of bad reputation. This contention, we will show, is false. "The Adult Authority version contradicts the Seperior Court order itself =... Cleaver’s only handling of a firearm (the rifle) was in obedience to a police command. He did pot handle a hand gun at all. There was noth- ing one way or the other to show a conspiracy or @ situation calling for the application of the doctrine of aiding and abetting. Hence, nothing support- ed either the possession of a firearm or the assanlt charge, As to the charge of association with individuals of bad reputation, the report indicated that two or three of those named had “police records,” but nothing to show whether any had been convicted of anything, or whether Cleaver knew of their arrest record.” (Superior Coart ct 1 LBS, 140, lu Parolee Cleaver was denied duc process of law by being denied opportunity te present bis case. Why was Cleaver returned to prison as a parole violator tf document ed evidence to the contrary bad been srveaied in his defense? To amswer that question, one must examine the Adult Authority. This board has the right to arbitrarily revoke or suspend parole on any individual. At the same time, the Adult Authority maintains—falsely—that Cleaver has the oppor tunity to defend himself at a hearing. This is how it works “A parolee is served with violation charges, is interviewed, is given & hearing (before the Adolt Authority itself, the charging party) at which the pazolee may ‘plead” to the parole violation charges, and is afforded an op portunity to present his defense.” “At the “hearing” a parolee is denied the right to cowmel, imy not have an independent and impartial officer to conduct the hearing and make decision.” (Petition for Hearing in the Supreme Court, po 17 Not only does the Adult Authority hold secret hearings, bet it ako refuses to notify persons ender its jurisdiction of its procedures, or of its variable definitions of what constitutes a parole violation. This secrecy and vagueness is in direct violation of federal law which requires agencies to peblish their procedures “for guidance of the public.” “Petitioner (Cleaver) is immediately and seriously prejediced by the Adult Authority's enlawful refusal to publish its regulat since he is to be imprisoned by virtee of an action which the Adult Authority still seeks to garb in this ‘veil of secteey.” (Petition for Hearing in the Supreme Court p. 12) Yes, the Adult Authority acted unyustly anc illegally. Its decussom was an outlaw decision. Cleaver had no chance of obtaining “justice” fron these Star Chamber proceedings. Why then Idn't the U.S. Supreme Court hear Cleaver’s case? There ure, we be © reasons why the cave wasn't accepted, The first is that any fair minded court would tous- ly have rele: Cleaver, thereby setting « precedent, The second is that thousands of cases of alleged parole violation from all over California and other states would be subject to revemal. Thirdly, the iegal functioning of the Adult Authority would come ander attack. The U.S. Sapreme Court just coulda’t afford to consider the Cleaver cave dering this turbulent period Eldridge Cleaver is a victim of naked, sharnele tion. As Judge Sherwin puts it that the steeom quence in pursuing political political per The encontradicted evidence presented to this court ind titioner had been a model parolee. The peril to’his parole stw from po failure of Pr reonal rehabilitation, bet from his uede goals, goals which were offensive to many of t { I ! | ] 1 ‘ t ' ' ! ' ' 1 ' i i | ! ! ! ! i ! ! ' ‘ his contemporaries. Not only was there absence of cause for the cancella- tion of parole, it was the product of a type of pressure uabecoming, to say the least, to the law enforcement parapbemalia of this state, Cleaver is in political exile because a man of his coavictions cannot get justice bere. Indeed, if we are to give more than lip service to the com copts of freedom and justice we must support him, work to get him discharged from parole must continue. An intense publicity campaign is necessary now to bring to the pablic the legal defense and angumests which were carried to the courts with no satisfaction. We must all work together to focus attention of this case. This is pot an isme of one man's freedom, bet a broad struggle which affirms the right of all of us to speak out politically im this country, If Cleaver is mot alowed bis freedom, it ix just a patter of time until all our freedoms are further reduced.

We want freedom. We want power to determine the destiny Community We believe that Diack people will not be free until we are able to determine our destiny. 2. We want full employment for our people. We —— that the federal government is responsible and ray to give every man employment or a guaranteed income. We believe that if the white American businessmen will not give full employment, then the means of production should be taken from the businessmen and placed in the community so that the people of the community can organize and employ all of its people and give a high standard of living. 3. We want _an_end to the robbery by the white man of our Black Somat We believe that this racist government has robbed us and now we are demanding the overdue debt of forty acres and two mules. Forty acres and two mules was promise! 100 years ago as resti- tution for slave labor and mass murder of black people. We will accept the payment in currency which will be distributed to our * many communities. The Germans are now aiding the Jews in Israel for the genocide of the Jewish people. The Germans mur- _ dered six million Jews. The American racist has taken part in _ the slaughter ofover fifty million black people; therefore, we feel _ that this is a modest demand that we make. 4. We want decent housing. fit for shelter of human beings. We believe that if the white landlords will not give decent Oo our black community, then the housing and the land should be made into cooperatives so that our community, with government aid, can build and make decent housing for its people. 5. > want education for our le that es the true nature ol mt American society. We want cducation us our true story our role in e present ay society. or _ We believe in an educational system that will give to our e a edge of self. If a man does not have knowledge of himself and his position in society and the world, then he has little chance to relate to anything else. €. We want all black men to be exempt from military service. ee __ We believe that Black people should not be forced to fight in the milttary service to defend a racist government that does not protect us. We will not fight and kill other people of color in the workd who, like black people, are being victimized by the white racist government of America. We will protect ourselves fror the force and violence of the racist police and the racist milit by whatever means necessary. an immediate end to POLICE BRUTALITY and people. 7. We MURDE want We believe we can end police brutality in our black community by organizing black self-defense groups that are dedicated to defending our black community from racist police oppression and brutality. The Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States gives a right to bear arms. We therefore believe that all black people should arm themselves for self defense. 3. We want f m for all black men held in federal, state, county and city prisons and jails. — We _ believe that all black people should be released from the many jails and prisons because they have not received a fair and impartial trial, 9. We want all black le_when it to trial to be tri: in court by a jury of their Tr group or ie from r COMmMUnItiCs, as definee the Constitution 0: ates. We believe that the courts should follow the United States Constitution &o that. black people will receive fair trials. The 14th Amerniment of the U.S, Constitution gives a man a right to be tried by his peer group. A peer is a person from a similar economic, social, religious, geographical, environmental, his- torical and racial background. To do this the court will be forced to select a jury from the black community from which the black defendant came. We have been, and are being tried by all-white juries that have no understanding of the ‘average reasoning man’’ of the black community. 10, We want land. bi And 28 our or the purpose their national destiny. When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have con- nected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they shoulddeclare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these ri: vernments are instituted a t right of the ie to alter or to a a new government, laying its foundation on suc inciples, Organiz ts powers in such form, as to them shall seem st likely to effect their safety and happiness. nce, indeed, wi ictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuln invariably ame object, evinces a design to reduce them despotiam, it is their right, it is their duty government, i to provide pew guards for their future security.
