An international symposium on the influence of the revolutionary and liberation movement of Black Panthersin the 1960s/1970s in the USAFree and Open to the PublicThe Institute of African American Affairs presents a roundtable reunion of Panthers from America, India, Israel, UK, and Australia will primarily be focused on the experiences of the members of their respective movements. The participants will explain why they formed a Panther Party and what was their inspiration, among other things. The idea is to provide students, scholars and the general audience with an opportunity to be exposed to an international oral history, archives, and memories that are not widely known and associated with the history of the Black Panthers in America. Additionally, the roundtable will also explore the links between the struggle for justice then and now.LOCATION:Tishman Auditorium, Vanderbilt Hall (first floor)New York University School of Law40 Washington Square South, NY, NY 10012Panel 1) 6:00—8:00 pmThe Panthers Worldwide ReunitedModerator: Gerald Horne (USA)Participants: Kathleen Cleaver (USA), Zainab Abbas (UK), P.
