As an African-American I am very aware of the social statement that accompanies Black Panthers. I have read all of the related articles on the Avalanche website. Over the last 50 years I have seen wargame after wargame after wargame featuring the German armed forces and specifically the Waffen SS and the Grossdeutschland Division. There have been a number of games focused on the GD. I think a game like Black Panthers is long overdue.

This is a refreshing outlook. I recall when Dr. Mike announced Black Panthers, and for quite a while afterward, he got a lot of angry blow-back about hijacking black history and heritage. I still don't understand how an honest telling of the story can be considered wrong. Go for Broke, The Ballad of Francis Wai and the bayonet charge of the 65th Infantry didn't generate the anger that Black Panthers did.

I also don't understand the heritage argument. I am Irish-Welsh. Every year I see Latin and African-American families where those bright green derbies for St. Patrick's Day. I always wonder what they understood or they thought. It's a weird world.
