Tom: So, young brother, what's your name? Huey: Huey Freeman. Tom: Huey! That's a great name! did you know there was once a pretty famous person named Huey? Huey: Perhaps you're referring to Huey P. Newton, co-founder of the black panther party for self-defense and icon of the black power movement of the late sixties and early seventies. I was named after him.
