Panther 21: Strangers to Justice
A 1970 booklet published by the Committee to Defend the Panther 21. Based in New York, the committee sought to bring attention to the circumstances surrounding the 21 Black Panther Party members who were arrested in connection with the alleged BPP terror campaign against New York City. Providing a detailed account of the events, along with commentary on court briefs, committee members Murray Kempton and David Shimkin argue that the defendants were victims of a politically motivated justice system. The booklet serves as both an examination of the case and a rallying call for public support, urging readers to help balance the scales of justice for the 21 defendants. Scarce. Item #2242.
