Richard Aoki & Burney Threadgill Fist Fight in Heaven

The theme of this cartoon is inspired by the title of Sherman Alexies' book of short stories, "The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fist Fight in Heaven". The content was fueled my indignation over Seth Rosenfeld's allegation that Richard Aoki was an FBI informant.  According the Rothenfeld, FBI agent, Burney Threadgill, said he "developed" Richard.  Check out piece on Democracy Now:   http://www.democracynow.org/2012/8/23/was_bay_area_radical_black_panther. 

Personally, I would judge a man by his deeds and actions rather than anything someone else claimed about him.  Richard Aoki's life work speaks for itself.  Mr.  Rosenfeld, on the other hand, has revealed himself to be an opportunist seeking to sell his book by dishonoring Richard Aoki's good name and treading on his grave.  He owes Richard an apology and a debt of respect.
