WE ARE OBLIVIOUS (2025) By Kevin “Rashid” Johnson

November 10, 2025 | Filed under: Articles

We in strip clubs
Throwing ones
They at the range
Loading guns
We having dance offs
Booties twerking
They training hand-to-hand
Bodies working
We gouge on junk food
Overweight
They in gyms
Hitting weights
We in the hood
Chasing ghetto … Read the rest

BOOKS BY KEVIN “RASHID” JOHNSON

PANTHER VISION

Panther Vision: Essential Party Writings and Art of Kevin "Rashid" Johnson, Minister of Defense New Afrikan Black Panther Party

"The original Black Panther Party for Self-Defense challenged the prevailing socio-political and economic relationship between the government and Black people. The New Afrikan Black Panther Party is building on that foundation, and Rashid’s writings embrace the need for a national organization in place of that which had been destroyed by COINTELPRO and racist repression. We can only hope this book reaches many, and serves to herald and light a means for the next generation of revolutionaries to succeed in building a mass and popular movement.” --Jalil Muntaqim, Prisoner of War
