A very special thank you to Clover Leigh for adding this amazing photo. I remember the first time I saw this photo, and the discussion amongst the team on how to get it honored.

Black Panther Captain Fred Bennett was murdered in January 1971 in the Santa Cruz Mountains. His charred remains were cremated eleven years later in 1982 and interred at Soquel Cemetery.
