“Investigator Wheeler commented briefly concerning the activity of the Progressive Labor Party in circulating inflammatory literature during the Watts riot. PLP distributed posters and flyers titled: “Don’t be a sucker!” (This pamphlet asked the question: “ISN’T THIS A DECLARATION OF WAR AGAINST THE AFRO-AMERICAN PEOPLE BY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT?”); “BLACK LIBERATION—NOW!” ; “THE NEED FOR REVOLUTION ” ; “WANTED FOR MURDER—Parker the Cop in Watts” (This poster was patterned after the PLP’s “Wanted for Murder—Gilligan the Cop” poster which was distributed during the Harlem riot of 1964.); and, during the Deadwyler affair, “WANTED for the MURDER of Leonard Deadwyler—‘BOVA—the COP.’””
