Andy Samberg Calls Out the FBI for Assassinating Black Panther Party Leaders


In 1969 21-yaer-old Black Panther party member Fred Hampton was murdered in his bed during an early morning police raid set up by the FBI COINTELPRO unit.

Last night comedian Andy Samberg called out the FBI while making a joke about the Marvel super hero film 'Black Panther' at the Golden Globe awards...

While presenting an award Andy quipped,
"If you told me as a kid growing up in the Bay that there was a movie called 'Black Panther' that starts off in Oakland, this is not what I would have imagined...Ryan [Coogler], were there a bunch of old members of the actual Black Panther Party saying, 'I can't even get an audition?' Just kidding they were all framed and murdered for wanting justice and equality. The world is and always has been a nightmare. It just seems worse now because of our phones."
