it's easy to cry racism, but people fail to realise that the Black Panther movement as well as the Black Power ideology don't sare the same origins with the KKK and White Power.
Whereas the Black Panthers and Black Supremacists are more of a result of opression by another ethnic group and thus more of a reaction to said opression by said ethnic group, the KKK and White Supremacists aren't a consequence of white Americans being tortured/raped/enslaved/shot/imprisoned etc. by blacks. The latter rather originates from a distorted Christian/social perception which legitimated the inhumane treatment of people of other ethnicities.
People love to call both equally racist, yet people are too ignorant to realise that both things are results of different things.
Sure, both are racist. But it's unfair to put both groups like the Black Panthers on a same level with groups like the KKK.
