Reminiscent of the old-fashioned "newsies," this boy peddles an issue of the Black Community News Service proclaiming "All Power to the People." Unlike the old-fashioned newsboys, he carries a rifle on his back. A newspaper centerfold of this image with different coloring appears in The Revolutionary Art of Emory Douglas, pages 8-9.
