Additional Details

A powerful image of Huey Newton and Bobby Seale, founders of the Black Panther Party. They are standing in front of the party's storefront headquarters in Oakland--both are armed. While the FBI and local police targeted the Panthers about the arming of the Party and the community, it was a proven fact that the armed Panther street patrols successfully reduced local crime. The poster's caption message continues: ". . .cease their wanton murder and brutality and torture of black people, or face the wrath of the armed people."
