Details

Hilliard was the Chief Of Staff of the Black Panther Party, and here is his story. Includes the incredible achievements and the ugly disintegration—firsthand accounts of Huey Newton's shootout with the police, the murder of Fred Hampton, how Panther money was raised and spent, the sexual mores of the Party, and how the Party began to dissolve in the early 70s as police raids, gun battles, IRS investigations, trials, and prison terms decimated the ranks. Written with the participation of many other Party members, this is a frank and compelling account of young blacks reaching toward a vision of justice and revolutionary change.
