Read the following excerpt from the Black Panther Party's Ten-Point Program (1966):

If a man does not have knowledge of himself and his position in society and the world, then he has little chance to relate to anything else."

  2. B
    Integrating mainstream public school systems through federally enforced desegregation mandates
  3. C
    Promoting state-funded separate but equal public schools to maintain community isolation
  4. D
    Rejecting formal schooling altogether in favor of direct armed confrontation with state authorities

Cevap

Establishing community-controlled institutions that foster self-determination and historical consciousness
The correct answer is correct because the Black Power movement, including the Black Panther Party, sought to establish community-controlled institutions that would foster self-determination and historical consciousness. The quote directly stresses the importance of self-knowledge and learning history as tools for personal and political empowerment, rather than integration into mainstream white-dominated systems.
