Similarities between the black panther party and modern-day protests/ activist groups share a similar goal of protecting black ideology by influencing the black power movement. The Black Panther Party sought to spread awareness regarding socialism, and self-defense mainly against law enforcement. Groups today are shown carrying on the movement, as minorities (of all races now) seek to obtain equality by protecting one another from police brutality. Modern-day examples would be the George Floyd protests and the Black Lives Matters movement.
