There are folks here who would more then likely want to know the facts just as in any topic on this board,
and probably revere Bobby Seale, have read Sieze the Times and are aware of his efforts to heal the community to this day,

and making such statements to them would be like making confusing statements about Amos Wilson or Marimba Ani.
Also since confusing information causes division, and creates an environment of instability, amongst youth, who really only have a vague understanding of what happened back then, such instability causes folks to loose hope, just as many in the NOI lost hope when they heard the rumors about Malcolm
But really only white supremists believe
that facts have no value for us Black folks and certain things are like they say in the Military Industrial Complex,
"on a need to know basis"
A young girl who had a father who was gainfully employed, but seperated from his wife,
and refused by his ex visitation rights,
asked her mother one day
"mamma is daddy dead alive or in jail?"
her reply was.
"what does that have to do with anything? why do you want to know that and how would knowing that give you better grades in school?"
