Newton\u003c\/em\u003e was called many things in his time: revolutionary, genius, criminal, even the most surveilled human being in world history. Yet, little is known about him still because of persistent distortions to his name and legacy as co-founder of the Black Panther Party.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this new and much-needed intellectual biography, political theorist Delio Vásquez establishes Newton as a true and original philosopher. Newton's compassion for the suffering of the people of the streets led him to develop innovative theories for how the most oppressed could spearhead revolutionary change against rising technocracy through communal defence of loving communities. The Panthers forged alliances with Black student unions and street gangs, Hollywood elites and poor whites, the gay liberation movement, and Third World nations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNewton left behind dozens of unpublished manuscripts analysing anthropology, politics, feminist thought, education, philosophy, evolutionary biology, and theology – ideas presented here for the first time. Vásquez also puts into proper perspective Newton’s late descent into addiction and madness, a direct effect of U.S. government techniques of war that targeted his mind, body, and soul in ways that are still all too relevant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Newton's maxim “I am we,” resounds more than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47031792664812,"sku":"9781509543342","price":42.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/12455673482725.jpg?v=1764148274"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.live\/collections\/delio-vasquez.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
