Submitted by PatrickMcD on September 25, 2015 - 1:11pmCHICAGO – If you want to experience the old cliché of “everything old is new again,” look no further than the excellent documentary, “The Black Panthers: Vanguard of a Revolution.” The formation of the famous 1960s political group is rooted in the same issues that came out of Ferguson and Baltimore – the marginalization and harassment of African Americans by law enforcement authority.

The film breaks no new ground artistically, but its historical backdrop has rarely been explored in cinema.
