Liberation, Imagination and the Black Panther Party: A New Look at the Black Panthers and Their Legacy

While the story of history may be most often defined through its winners, long forgotten, defeated movements and their ideals sometimes reemerge with renewed popularity, offering perhaps a better glimpse into society's future. This is the argument put forward by this collection of reflections from scholars and activists that reconsider the historical impact of the Black Panther Party (BPP)- often called the most significant revolutionary organization in the US in the later part of 20th-century.
