Founded in 1966, The Black Panther Party became one of the most influential and controversial radical political organizations of its time. One of the group's most influential tools was its weekly newspaper, The Black Panther Intercommunal News Service. In this collection Hilliard has pulled together important articles from the periodical, addressing issues such as the Vietnam War, student movements and police brutality. Includes a bonus DVD featuring performances by contemporary hip-hop artists and actual footage from the 1960s and 1970s.
