Biography

James White was a Chicago Black Panther Party section leader jailed from April 28, 1969 because he could not raise bail. The June 28, 1969 Black Panther newspaper reported that he remained jailed when a Cook County grand jury expanded an earlier Summit prosecution to indict sixteen Illinois Panthers for conspiracy, aggravated kidnapping, aggravated battery, burglary and unlawful use of weapons. The reviewed report does not establish the eventual disposition or his physical release.
