Fifty Years Later, Black Panthers’ Art Still Resonates
The New York Times

The Black Panther Party was founded 50 years ago in Oakland, on Oct. 15, 1966, and within two years it had chapters across the country. The New York Times is taking this opportunity to explore the Black Panthers’ legacy, through their iconic use of imagery and how they were covered in its own pages.
The Black Panther Party is often associated with armed resistance, but one of the most potent weapons in its outreach was its artwork.
