Summary
A portrait of the Black Panthers co-founder and leader traces how he was framed for murder and racketeering, dubbed along with the Black Panthers as a top security threat by J. Edgar Hoover's FBI, and forced to flee to Cuba before he succumbed to drug addiction and died in 1989.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Huey P. Newton remains one of the most misunderstood political figures of the twentieth century. As cofounder and leader of the Black Panther Party for more than twenty years, Newton (1942-1989) was at the forefront of the radical political activism of the 1960s and '70s.
Raised in poverty in Oakland, California, and named for corrupt Louisiana governor Huey P. Long, Newton embodied both the passions and the contradictions of the civil rights movement he sought to advance. In this first authorized biography, Newton's former chief of staff David Hilliard teams up with best-selling authors Keith and Kent Zimmerman to tell the whole story of the man behind the organization that FBI director J. Edgar Hoover infamously dubbed "the greatest threat to the internal security of the country."
