Collection Description
Inspired by the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the founding of the Black Panther Party, Jane Meyers conducted a group of oral histories with members of the San Diego Black Panther Party. Ben Waddell, Wilbert "Buddy" Hauser, Henry Wallace, Ibrahim Fardan, Roe Rush, and Trunnell Price tell their stories of recruitment as teenagers and life in their local organization. These interviews were sponsored by Tom and Marilyn Ross through the San Diego State University Library Dean's Excellence Fund.
