This book examines a range of visual expressions of Black Power
across American art and popular culture from 1965 through 1972. It
begins with case studies of artist groups, including Spiral, OBAC
and AfriCOBRA, who began questioning Western aesthetic traditions
and created work that honored leaders, affirmed African American
culture, and embraced an African lineage. Also showcased is an
Oakland Museum exhibition of 1968 called "New Perspectives in Black
Art," as a way to consider if Black Panther Party activities in the
neighborhood might have impacted local artists' work. The
concluding chapters concentrate on the relationship between
selected Black Panther Party members and visual culture, focusing
on how they were covered by the mainstream press, and how they
self-represented to promote Party doctrine and agendas.
