Harry Dolan graduated from the Watts Writers Workshop and sold a script to The Partridge Family. In his episode, the Partridge Family’s multicolored bus breaks down in a Black neighborhood. They’re confronted by an unwelcoming pair of Black Panthers, portrayed by Lou Gosset Jr. and Richard Pryor, but the family wins them over. By the end of the episode, a young Danny Bonaduce is gifted a black beret and made an honorary Panther.
