This is the first collection of writings by the founder of the Black Panther Party since his death in 1989. Ten of the 36 selections were published in To Die for the People, an earlier collection released in 1972; the remainder were written after that publication. The book represents the many transformations of Newton's and the party's political ideologies and motivations, including support of the feminist and gay rights movements. Between the opening coverage of how and why Newton and Bobby Seale mobilized the black community to support a program of armed self-defense to the closing excerpts from Newton's Ph.D. dissertation outlining the FBI's COINTELPRO activities to dismantle the Black Panther Party are passionate and captivating writings that reveal a widely read political theorist committed to putting theory into practice to make a better world. This book is essential reading and primary-source research material for understanding the Black Panther Party, grass-roots organizing at its best, and the black power movement. Suitable for public and academic libraries. Sherri Barnes, Univ. of California, Santa Barbara Libs.

Book Description
Beginning with his founding of the Black Panther Party in 1966, Huey Newton set the political stage for events that would place him and the Panthers at the forefront of the African American liberation movement for the next 20 years. The Huey P. Newton Reader includes now-classic texts ranging from the formation of the Black Panthers, the arming of young urban blacks for self-defense, and Eldridge Cleaver’s controversial expulsion from the party, to FBI infiltration of civil rights groups, the Vietnam War, and the burgeoning feminist movement. It also features never-before-published writings on pan-Africanism, affirmative action, and Newton’s three years in Cuba as well as previously unpublished material from the Black Panther Party archives and Newton’s private collection.
