International Revolutionary Day, marked each year on December 4th, is a day of remembrance and reflection on the radical struggle for liberation embodied by Fred Hampton and the Black Panther Party. His vision of collective power, rooted in socialism and Black liberation, challenged state violence and poverty, making him a target of government surveillance and repression. On December 4, 1969, Hampton was assassinated in a police raid coordinated with the FBI, a killing that galvanized movements worldwide. International Revolutionary Day stands as a tribute to his legacy—a reminder of the cost of revolutionary change and the enduring call for justice, community power, and liberation for oppressed people everywhere.

On today’s show, we speak with Hampton’s son, Chairman Fred Hampton Jr. about his father’s legacy.
