- Summary:
- Beginning with his founding of the Black Panther Party in 1966, Huey Newton set the political stage for events that would place him and the Panthers at the forefront of the African American liberation movement for the next 20 years. The Huey P. Newton Reader includes now-classic texts ranging from the formation of the Black Panthers, the arming of young urban blacks for self-defense, and Eldridge Cleavers controversial expulsion from the party, to FBI infiltration of civil rights groups, the Vietnam War, and the burgeoning feminist movement. It also features never-before-published writings on pan-Africanism, affirmative action, and Newtons three years in Cuba as well as previously unpublished material from the Black Panther Party archives and Newtons private collection.
