She described how the police pulled her from the room as Fred lay unconscious on their bed. She heard one officer say, 'He's still alive.' She then heard two shots. A second officer said, 'He's good and dead now.' She looked at Jeff and asked, "What can you do?" Fifty years later, Haas finds that there is still an urgent need for the revolutionary systemic changes Hampton was organizing to accomplish. With a new preface dicussing what has changed--and what has not--The Assassination of Fred Hampton remains Haas's personal account of how he and People's Law Office partner Flint Taylor pursued Hampton's assassins, ultimately prevailing over unlimited government resources and FBI conspiracy. Not only a story of justice delivered, this book puts Hampton in the spotlight as a dynamic community leader and an inspiration in the ongoing fight against injustice and police brutality."-- Page [4] of cover. 600 10 $a Hampton, Fred, $d 1948-1969. 610 20 $a Black Panther Party. 600 17 $a Hampton, Fred, $d 1948-1969. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00243007 610 27 $a Black Panther Party. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00547265 650 0 $a Assassination $z Chicago. $z Chicago. 650 7 $a Assassination. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00818962 651 7 $a Illinois $z Chicago. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204048 941 $a 3 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20210728010953.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20210721015521.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20210306015946.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B7097E4E586511EA978CCE3397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
