David Walker Livres

WINNER OF THE EISNER AWARD • A bold and fascinating graphic novel history of the revolutionary Black Panther Party. Founded in Oakland, California, in 1966, the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense was a radical political organization that stood in defiant contrast to the mainstream civil rights movement. This gripping illustrated history explores the impact and significance of the Panthers, from their social, educational, and healthcare programs that were designed to uplift the Black community to their battle against police brutality through citizen patrols and frequent clashes with the FBI, which targeted the Party from its outset. Using dramatic comic book-style retellings and illustrated profiles of key figures, The Black Panther Party captures the major events, people, and actions of the party, as well as their cultural and political influence and enduring legacy.

Focusing on the historical context, this work features David Walker's influential "Appeal," published in 1829, which advocates for black unity and self-help against oppression. As an African-American abolitionist, Walker highlights the injustices of slavery and emphasizes the moral responsibility to pursue racial equality. His radical views sparked controversy and concern among contemporaries, yet they became pivotal in shaping abolitionist thought and inspiring future leaders. The "Appeal" is recognized as a significant political and social document of the 19th century.
