Black Liberation
The
Black Liberation movement grew out of the civil rights movement and was
made up of many militant organizations dedicated to freedom for
African-Americans, such as the Black Panther Party, the Black Liberation
Army, and the Republic of New Africa. The collection includes extensive
files on, but is not limited to, these three organizations, with
additional materials on Pan-African organizations, the revolutionary
prison movement, and other diverse publications of many different
organizations and individuals, including pamphlets, ephemera,
periodicals, newspapers, theoretical writings, and poetry.
