She escaped from prison in 1979 and fled to Cuba, where Fidel Castro granted her asylum in 1984.<\/p>\n<p>The FBI later added her to its \u201cMost Wanted Terrorists\u201d list and placed a $1 million reward on her capture. Despite her criminal record, several organizations posted tributes in her honor.<\/p>\n<p>The Democratic Socialists of America wrote, \u201cRest in Power, Assata Shakur. The American state brutally oppressed Assata and her Black Panther Party Comrades. The Cubans welcomed her and other Black Revolutionaries with asylum, and their solidarity and loyalty allowed Assata to live out her days in Havana.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The <a title=\"\u200c\" href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/tag\/chicago-teachers-union\">Chicago Teachers Union<\/a> also issued praise, stating, \u201cToday we honor the life and legacy of a revolutionary fighter, a fierce writer, a revered elder of Black liberation, and a leader of freedom whose spirit continues to live in our struggle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The backlash from officials was swift. New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy, a Democrat, slammed the union\u2019s message as \u201cshameful and depraved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe was convicted of the murder of New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster, who was executed in cold blood,\u201d Murphy said on X. \u201cThere are so many worthy heroes to celebrate. She is not one of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Shakur\u2019s involvement with the Black Liberation Army\u2014a militant offshoot of the Black Panther Party\u2014linked her to a group responsible for armed robberies, police shootings and bombings during the 1970s.<\/p>\n<p>Patel, 45, currently serves as FBI Director under former President Donald Trump. A former federal prosecutor and defense attorney, Patel became a key ally of Trump while working on the House Intelligence Committee before joining the National Security Council.<\/p>\n<p>In her 1987 autobiography, Shakur claimed she was targeted for crimes she didn\u2019t commit or for actions she believed were justified.<\/p>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t<!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/allhiphop.com\/news\/fbi-director-kash-patel-says-assata-shakur-mourners-spitting-on-badges-of-cops\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kash Patel condemned public tributes to Assata Shakur following her death in Cuba last week, accusing mourners of dishonoring law enforcement by celebrating a convicted killer. \u201cJoanne Chesimard didn\u2019t \u2018fight for justice.\u2019 She murdered New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster in cold blood then fled to Cuba to escape accountability.
