Project Summary

Fred Hampton is a respected and talented grass-roots civil rights activist who rises to become chairman of the Illinois chapter of the Black Panthers organization and deputy chairman of the national BPP. But his charisma, oratorial skills and swift ascent marks him out as a threat in the eyes of the FBI. William O'Neal betrays him and provides the FBI with detailed plans of Hampton's apartment. In 1969, Hampton and fellow Panther Mark Clark are killed during a controversial raid by a tactical unit carrying out orders from the Chicago Police Department and the FBI.
