board that he was reluctant at first to direct “Dear Mama.”
“I just didn’t know if I wanted to [deal with] what I was gonna be forced to, personally,” he said. “I didn’t know if I wanted to go on that emotional journey, but I said, ‘Give me a few days, let me think about it.’” He eventually decided to make “Dear Mama” and incorporate his relationship with Tupac into the series.
At one point in the docuseries, Afeni Shakur is shown explaining her motherly mission. “It was my responsibility to teach Tupac how to survive his reality,” she says. The camera flashes to Tupac, as a 17-year-old high school student, explaining his ethos. “My mother taught me to analyze society and not be quiet. If there’s something in my mind, speak it,” he says. “My mother was a Black Panther. And she was really involved in the movement.”
Years later, he raps: “My mother never let me forget my history, hoping I would set free chains that were put on me.”
Afeni Shakur explains it was difficult to be a mother. “I knew very well how to protect my children,” she says. “I’ve spent a great deal of my own life in prison. I never wanted it to happen to my son.”
Then the camera rewinds time to a speech that seemingly sets the stage for her son. It’s as if Afeni Shakur were rapping in the same verse and space, but many years before Tupac would become a star: “I have a revolutionary story to tell,” she shouts, as the camera pans to black-and-white footage of her being arrested. “My hands refuse to be beaten by this tormented cell.”
Afeni Shakur was born Alice Faye Williams in 1947 in Lumberton, N.C., and moved with her sister to the Bronx when she was about 11 years old. In 1968, after listening to a speech by Bobby Seale, the powerful co-founder of the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, she joined up. She changed her name to Afeni Shakur after marrying Lumumba Shakur, who founded the Harlem chapter of the Black Panther Party.
Seale and Huey Newton had founded the Black Panthers on Oct. 15, 1966, to protect Black communities from police brutality. “People often forget Huey Newton was a law student in 1965,” former Black Panther David Hilliard said in 2006, during a panel at the University of New Mexico. “Newton and Seale patrolled with law books in one hand and a gun in the other.”
“We did not practice racist ideology,” Hilliard recalled. “The system was discriminatory and violent. Our slogan became revolution and survival, pending transformation of society; survival pending revolution.”
The Black Panthers focused on universal health care, education, decent housing, free medical care and transportation for seniors. The party required members to attend political education classes, adhere to the party’s disciplinary rules and memorize the
