 Rating:  - Real HistoryI read this book in the 1970s, shortly after it came out in hardback. It was then and remains today a document more about American racism, the still-prevalent bias that confronts people of color. That the author was a hero in standing up against the prejudice of his time, is true but less important than the enduring lesson of his ultimate destruction. Heroes are not little plastic figurines to put on dashboards, nor are they to be reduced to a five-second soundbyte about "having a dream"--their ... Read More Rating: - A document of one of the most important periods of American historyThis is the book you need to read on the history of the Black Panthers, wehre it all began, how they formed, the ideology behind the movement and the eventual collapse of the movement. Yes there are contradictions from the party members (not to mention a few from what the members turned into post BPM) but this is realy a document of one of the most important aspects of the civil rights movement an aspect that is largely overlooked. The Black Panthers always saw themselves as the ...

Newton is the reissue of a protest-era manifesto first published in 1970.

Read More Rating:  - Still Not Finished ...I bought this book almost 7 years ago, at that time I was finishing books of that size in a week tops. However, because the book is so poorly written, has a very slow speed to it, and is very difficult to 'get into' in general, it is still unfinished! Seeing the book as mandatory reading for those interested in Black empowerment, I tried over and over to stomach it, but to no avail, regardless of reading location, time of day, or any other self-directed motivator. Looking at all ... Read More Rating:  - A interesting look at the party Seize the time writtin by Bobby Seal has got to be one of the most electrifying, in-depth accounts seen through the eyes of the co-founder of the party. It expresses the political ideals and the organized plan for the upliftment of not only for the American African Man, but all those whom were opressed by the systmatic plan made for the wealthy few. Topics rarley discussed in the texts and media nowdays are brought to the table in this book . It discusses numerous veiws held by that of the founder of the party ... Read More
