As much a civil rights history as a design one, this book on the former Minister of Culture for the Black Panther party is required reading for anyone who believes visual culture can be a force for social good. But one is also struck by the originality of Douglas's work. He created an completely new aesthetic appropriate to its incendiary content and the audience he was trying to reach.

this is such a great book. first off, the images of douglas' work are massive, powerful and loaded with impact. the majority are collected from the black panther newspaper. plus there are roughly 5 articles about him, his art, and its/his relevance in the community (some of the info overlaps as the articles exist individually). absolutely necessary.
