Black Panther?[edit]

The article currently states without qualification or citation that he was a Black Panther. At SNCC he certainly worked closely with Panthers such as Aaron Dixon, but I am not sure he himself was ever a member, and I would like to see a solid citation for that, not (for example) something from a political opponent. - Jmabel | Talk 04:54, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
