Paul Boutelle

Kwame Montsho Ajamu Somburu (born Paul Benjamin Boutelle;[1] October 13, 1934 – May 3, 2016) was an activist, politician, black nationalist, and member of the Socialist Workers Party.

[2] Boutelle was the first chairman of the AAAWV and a secretary of the Black United Action Front, both instrumental in organizing the Harlem portions of the April 15, 1967 New York City march staged by the Spring Mobilization Committee to End the War in Vietnam.

[2] Boutelle appears in the 1968 film, No Vietnamese Ever Called Me Nigger, photographed by Michael Wadleigh and directed by fellow Socialist Workers Party member David Loeb Weiss.

Boutelle toured throughout the United States during that campaign and appeared on numerous radio and television shows, including William F. Buckley, Jr.'s Firing Line (episode 111, taped on July 10, 1968), and in interviews with Joey Bishop and Dick Cavett.

His national tour of France was cancelled because of the nationwide worker and student strikes and protests during the spring of 1968.
