The following is a summary of BPP activities in the
Charlotte Division:
The Survival Day Rally sponsored by the Winston-Salem
BPP held on 12/17/72, was the principal activity of the party
during the month of December, 1972. The rally was held at Winston-
Salem, N.C., and was attended by approximately 700 persons, a
| turn out well above the anticipated figure. As a result, the
rally was very disorganized. Various items of clothing were give
away free, approximately 250 sickle cell anemia shots were given
and almost 100 persons were registered to vote. Sources reported
how the party gave away almost everything it had at the rally and
is now broke again and in dire need of funds. At the conclusion
of the rally, a brief slide show was presented by the Panthers
during which numerous photographs of the Winston-Salem area compaying
the downtown renewal program of a new Federal Building, new city
hali, new bank building, etc., against the background of the
decaying ghetto. The Panthers attempted to dramatize the point
that the ruling class is spending all of the money for the ruling
class and nothing for the people who really need help.
As previously indicated, JULIUS WHITE CORNELL, JR.,
returned to Winston-Salem, N.C., from Oakland, California, some-
time during the middle of December, 1972, CORNELL, who has
the title of Captain of Defense with the Winston-Salem Panthers,
was assisting the BPP in Oakland with the political campaign
in that city.
BPP member RANDOLPH JENNINGS remains in North Carolina
State Prison, Raleigh, North Carolina, following his conviction
on assault charges. JENNINGS is a member of the "High Point 3",
three BPP members from High Point, North Carolina, who were
convicted on this same charge. The other two Panthers have been
released on appeal bond. The Winston-Salem Chapter is continuing
in its efforts to raise enough money to cover JENNINGS' bond.
