"My mom was in the movement with Bobby Seale and Huey Newton,

and one of her first mentors was Julian Bond,” Mr. Smollett said of the Black Panther founders and the civil rights leader.

“To this day, Angela Davis is one of her dearest friends.

We’ve spent Mother’s Day with Angela.”..."

"In 1970 Davis was implicated by more than 20 witnesses in a plot to free her imprisoned lover, fellow Black Panther George Jackson, by hijacking a Marin County, California courtroom and taking hostage the judge, the prosecuting assistant district attorney, and two jurors.

In an ensuing gun battle outside the court building, Judge Harold Haley’s head was blown off by a sawed-off shotgun owned by Ms. Davis.

To avoid arrest for her alleged complicity in the plot, Ms. Davis fled California, using aliases and changing her appearance to avoid detection.

Two months later, Davis was arrested by the FBI in New York City."

The left is afraid the Jussie Smollett incident is going to expose the great lie about 'hate crimes'; that most of them are hoaxes.

In the past the MSM and the left have been able to maintain 'the narrative' but the Jussie case could change everything.

No longer could the left or the MSM jump to the conclusion an alleged hate crime is real.

The media has always giving 'hate crimes' the benefit of the doubt and that will no longer be true.

Any future reported alleged 'hate crime' will now come with questions and demands of proof.
