Fred Hampton
Fred Hampton was a prominent African American civil rights activist and a leader in the Black Panther Party during the late 1960s. He was known for his efforts in community organizing, particularly in establishing free breakfast programs for children and promoting racial unity among working-class communities. Hampton's activism and leadership made him a target of law enforcement, and he was tragically assassinated by the FBI in 1969 at the age of 21, becoming a symbol of the struggle for civil rights and social justice.
