Are Black militias a new phenomenon? The history of Black armed self-defense

In the spring of 1967, twelve Black men toting loaded rifles marched into the California Capitol to make a political statement about racism and the constitutional right of Black people to bear arms.

Six of the armed men barged into the chambers while the assembly was still in session. At the same time, California Governor Ronald Reagan was preparing to eat fried chicken with a group of eighth graders on the Capitol lawn.
