FIRST 50 copies SIGNED by author!

AVAILABLE NOW FOR PRE-ORDER HERE / OFFICIAL RELEASE FEBRUARY 2023

Back to back we stood in the face of a political minotaur disguised as the U.S. government and its agencies. In Oakland, California, the Black Panther Party sprang to life and reached Baltimore, Maryland, after the assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Senator Robert Kennedy. The Party reached me and I came in to avoid the Vietnam War and to write for the Panther newspaper. Others came because they had outgrown the reform issues of the non-violent civil rights movement, as the Black Panther Party would become the only black revolutionary political organization to exist inside of Fortress America. This is a journey, taken from journal entries, letters and memories, that moves among the black men and women of the Black Panther Party who thumbed their noses at the powers that be and who lived and died believing that we were free for a while.
