It also sparked fierce debate about Panther fact, Panther fiction, and the power of images. Former leftie David Horowitz, now the head of the neoconservative Center for Popular Culture in Los Angeles, took out an ad in Daily Variety calling Panther a "two-hour lie.” Damning director Mario Van Peebles for glorifying the positive aspects of the black power movement — the children's breakfasts and sickle cell anemia tests the Panthers sponsored, for example — Horowitz warned that people "will die because of this film” and faxed a seven-page press release to the media condemning the Panthers as "cocaine-addicted gangsters who ... committed hundreds of felonies.” Copyright © Cambridge University Press 1998 Prospects Cambridge University Press 23(1998-10), 483-516 0361-2333 23<483 1998 23 PTS https://doi.org/10.1017/S0361233300006438 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI 1 research-article jats NATIONALLICENCE 856 40 https://doi.org/10.1017/S0361233300006438 text/html Onlinezugriff via DOI NATIONALLICENCE 100 1- Doss Erika NATIONALLICENCE 773 0- Prospects Cambridge University Press 23(1998-10), 483-516 0361-2333 23<483 1998 23 PTS CC0 http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0 nationallicence BK010053 XK010053 XK010000 NATIONALLICENCE NATIONALLICENCE NL-cambridge
