New York City's radical Councilman. (Insider Report).(Charles Barron)(Brief Article)
On May 28th, New York City Councilman Charles Barron held a press conference to announce that he would introduce a resolution on June 26th to free all "political prisoners" in the United States. "We are here today because I am introducing a resolution which condemns the criminalization of political activity and expression as a method of political control, and abuses by the agents of the U.S. Government, including law enforcement agencies which are designed to stifle political beliefs," Barron stated.
A freshman on the council, Barron had established a reputation as an audacious radical long before taking office. During a March 31st interview on WHYY, Barron stated: "Some people say that, 'Charles, you're an ex-Black Panther.' I correct them and say, 'I'm still a Panther to my heart.'
