Publisher Description
The searing, visionary memoir of founding Black Panther Huey P. Newton, in a dazzling graphic package
Tracing the birth of a revolutionary, Huey P. Newton's famous and oft-quoted autobiography is as much a manifesto as a portrait of the inner circle of America's Black Panther Party. From Newton's impoverished childhood on the streets of Oakland to his adolescence and struggles with the system, from his role in the Black Panthers to his solitary confinement in the Alameda County Jail, Revolutionary Suicide is unrepentant and thought-provoking in its portrayal of inspired radicalism.

Great book
Revolutionary suicide - Huey P. Newton
Absolutely loved this book but more importantly the mindset of Black Panther Party founder Huey P. Newton. I was educated on existentialism through this book & through the recommendations by Huey P. & with these recommendations I was able to enlighten myself even more with some influential Marxist’s like Jean Paul Sartre , Søren Kierkegaard & many more through out humanity’s timeline.
Great read
Really enjoyed this book. Great historical context of the Black Panther Party from one of its founding members.
