Revolution in Our Time: The Black Panther Party's Promise to the People

Focusing on community activism and self-defense, this history highlights the Black Panther Party as a revolutionary socialist movement that empowered Black Americans. Kekla Magoon reveals how the Panthers, often marginalized in civil rights narratives, mobilized thousands—predominantly women—against systemic oppression. The book situates their struggle within the broader context of Black American history, linking past injustices to contemporary movements like Black Lives Matter. Magoon's work serves as a call to action for a new generation to engage in the fight for justice.
