Hampton also sought unity among oppressed groups and advocated for revolutionary change. His leadership and efforts to promote social justice made him a powerful figure, but he was tragically killed in a police raid in 1969 at age 21. Today, he is remembered as a symbol of resistance and the fight for racial and economic justice.
