  • The Feminist Leadership of Ericka Huggins in the Black Panther Party
    187 The Feminist Leadership of Ericka Huggins in the Black Panther Party Mary Phillips ABSTRACT Born on January 5, 1948, in Washington, D.C., Ericka Huggins was an important figure in the Black Panther Party (BPP) as well as a key Black Power era activist. A high-ranking member of the BPP, she served on the organization’s Central Committee. As a writer, poet, educator, former editor of the Black Panther and Director of the Oakland Community School, Huggins was vital to the BPP as an organizer and intellectual. This essay provides an in-depth analysis of Huggins’s feminist theory, her work as a revolutionary educator, and the impact of her incarceration on the BPP as a member of the New Haven 14. I argue that Huggins’s experiences serve as an example of progressive gender politics in the BPP. Until recently Black women’s activism has been largely neglected in BPP scholarship and this work contributes to the emerging scholarship on Black women in the most widely known organization of the Black Power Movement. This essay differs from previous interpretations on Ericka Huggins and the BPP by showcasing her voice on the intersections of Black Power and Black feminist politics in the BPP. On the front cover of the Saturday, July 12, 1969 issue of The Black Panther, an enlarged picture depicts a mother and child in a rat-infested apartment, with the mother pointing a loaded Black Diaspora Review 4(1) Winter 2014 188 rifle at a hole in the wall to kill the rats as they enter.

  • An Oral History with Ericka Huggins
    Oral History Center University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Ericka Huggins AN ORAL HISTORY WITH ERICKA HUGGINS Interviews conducted by Fiona Thompson in 2007 Public Domain 2010 ii Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Ericka Huggins, dated April 23, 2010; and interviewer Fiona Thomson dated May 24, 2010. This manuscript has been donated to The Bancroft Library and placed in Public Domain and thereby made available for research purposes.

Though the name stands for "Counterintelligence Program," the targets were not enemy spies. The FBI set out to eliminate "radical" political opposition inside the US. When traditional modes of repression (exposure, blatant harassment, and prosecution for political crimes) failed to counter the growing insurgency, and even helped to fuel it, the Bureau took the law into its own hands and secretly used fraud and force to sabotage constitutionally - protected political activity. Its methods ranged far beyond surveillance, and amounted to a domestic version of the covert action for which the CIA has become infamous throughout the world.

  • Black Against Empire: the History and Politics of The
    Praise for Black against Empire “This is the book we’ve all been waiting for: the first complete history of the Black Panther Party, devoid of the hype, the nonsense, the one-dimensional heroes and villains, the myths, or the tunnel vision that has limited scholarly and popular treatments across the ideological spectrum. Bloom and Martin’s riveting, nuanced, and highly original account revises our understanding of the Party’s size, scope, ideology, and political complexity and offers the most compelling explanations for its ebbs and flows and ultimate demise. Moreover, they reveal with spectacular clarity that the Party’s primary target was not just police brutality or urban poverty or white supremacy but U.S. empire in all of its manifestations.” — Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Freedom Dreams: The Black Radical Imagination “As important as the Black Panthers were to the evolution of black power, the African American freedom struggle, and, indeed, the sixties as a whole, scholarship on the group has been surprisingly thin and all too often polemical. Certainly no definitive scholarly account of the Panthers has been produced to date or rather had been produced to date. Bloom and Martin can now lay claim to that honor. This is, by a wide margin, the most detailed, analytically sophisticated, and balanced account of the organiza- tion yet written. Anyone who hopes to understand the group and its impact on American culture and politics will need to read this book.” — Doug McAdam, author of Political Process and the Development of Black Insurgency, 1930–1970 “Bloom and Martin bring to light an important chapter in American history.

Members of the New Haven chapter of the Black Panther Party (BPP) were accused for the murder of a 24-year-old New York Panther named Alex Rackley.[1] The murder and trial shifted attention away from efforts by the Panthers and other organizations to address issues of economic and political equality in New Haven. Founded in Oakland, California in 1966, by Huey Newton and Bobby Seale, the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense was soon a national organization. Consistent with the BPP mission, which called for an end to police brutality, the Panthers began armed patrols monitoring police. After several high profile confrontations with police, the Party dropped self-defense from its name. BPP also began a series of “Serve the People” initiatives designed to soften its image and highlight its community service programs. The change in focus did little to deflect law enforcement’s interest in the party, most notably the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
