Time Out says

At the Center for Brooklyn History on Thursday, June 12, the Brooklyn Public Library is partnering with The Guardian for a special (and free!) public screening and conversation with chief reporter Ed Pilkington, The Guardian deputy editor Lauren N. Williams and three Panther cubs—no, not baby animals but the now-adult children of members of the Black Panther Party.

More than 50 years after the heyday of the Party activity in the 1960s and '70s, Panther offspring Ericka Abram, K’Sisay Sadiki, and Sharif El-Mekki gather to reflect on the lessons and legacy of the Black Panther party as well as their own unique childhoods entangled with the activitist movement.
