It's important for the word racism to be defined to assess the stance of the Black Panthers.

1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race

2 : racial prejudice or discrimination

According to the ten point Panther Program they want:

1. Peers/blacks to be control of any institution within their community.

2.The government to provide full employment for black people.

3. They want land/mules or money for every black person in America.

4. Decent Housing is to be provided for blacks.

5. Proper education and history of blacks in America.

6. Free healthcare for blacks.

7. Blacks should be able to arm themselves against the government/police.

8. End all wars of aggression. (I personally think that's a great idea.)

9. Retrying the cases for any black that is imprisoned, by a jury of peers

10. Because of their history in the US, they have the right to to all of the things above.

In conclusion of these 10 principles, I would easily say yes. Establishing equal rights between all races is very well overstepped with these ten points. Only promoting one's own race through prejudice and sole racial advancement is racism.

Is the group a hate group? I would say no, the Black Panthers are not organized as a hate group though they are on a watch list, and the New Black Panthers are classified as black supremacists (which is quite racist).

No, The are not in any way shape or form racist . They believe in Black " Equality " and "unity" , not black power . The KKK is a hate group , that believes in "white power " and is in no comparison to the BPP [ Black Panther party] .

Edit: What the hell does black equality mean? and unity? And how are they not in favor of black power if they are a part of that whole movement. Did they not host the black power conference on Malcolm X's birthday? Get your facts straight. Groups like the KKK call for white power and are called racist, but the black panthers can boast about black power and their case is dismissed. They are just as racist as the KKK and the Aryan Guard. The NAACP is racist too. Anyone who is out there based on their race is racist.

Any group that promotes hate And violence based on someone's race is a hate group.

When was black panther's population the lowest?

Since this section is about nature and animals I assume you mean the wild black panthers, not the Afro-American gang. Black "panthers" are merely the dark mutation of the regular leopard, and they do have faint spots. The present-day population of black panthers, like all the big cats, is the lowest it has ever been. I believe most of the black panthers are in captivity in zoos.
