"Black Power: Politics of Liberation in America", by Kwame Ture (Stokely Carmichael) & Charles V. Hamilton

An eloquent document of the civil rights movement that remains a work of profound social relevance 50 years after it was first published.

A revolutionary work since its publication, Black Power exposed the depths of systemic racism in this country and provided a radical political framework for reform: true and lasting social change would only be accomplished through unity among African-Americans and their independence from the preexisting order.

"#Panther offers the extraordinary little-told story of the first year the #VotingRightsAct was put to the test, in 1966, deep in the heart of the Jim Crow South. That election would reverberate across the nation, from Alabama to Oakland to the halls of Congress, changing the course of history through to the #VotingRights battles of today."

Ein bisschen Gerechtigkeit gibt es doch. In den USA ist Samuel L. Jackson der Schauspieler mit dem größten Box Office Erfolg an den #Kinokassen. Wahrscheinlich ist die Liste nicht inflationsbereinigt, aber immerhin. Was auffällt: Sehr viele vordere Plätze sind den #Marvel Filmen zu verdanken. Da sage noch wer, Comics sind für Kinder. #BlackPower

What I like about this photo of a #female shipyard worker during WW2, by Dorothea Lange, is:

firstly its a reminder that #women of colour played a major role on the home front in WW2;

but secondly, I just love the (intended?/accidental?) #blackpower message of the wall slogan 'Serve Yourself' prominently behind her.... not least because of the use of the idea of 'service' in wartime messaging!

Today In Labor History June 29, 1941: Stokely Carmichael (1941-1998), founder of the U.S. civil rights group the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad. He was a key figure in the Black Power movement, becoming honorary Prime Minister of the Black Panther Party and, later, as the leader of the All-African People’s Revolutionary Party. The FBI attempted to destroy him through COINTELLPRO, and succeeded in convincing Huey Newton that he was a CIA agent. This, and the Panthers’ embracing of white activists into their movement, led him to distance himself from the Panthers. In 1968, he married the famous South African singer Miriam Makeba and moved to Africa, changing his name to Kwame Ture and campaigning internationally for revolutionary socialist pan-Africanism.
