Black Panther poster from 1969, reworked from an earlier version published in the BP newspaper.
As Revolutionary Artist and Minister of Culture for The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, Emory Douglas was responsible for the party’s striking agitprop posters and its newspaper’s political illustrations. His revolutionary art, collected in a new book edited by the artist Sam Durant, spoke of the social conditions and institutional racism within the US that the Black Panther Party had been born out of.
