Revolutionary Suicide

The searing, visionary memoir of founding Black Panther Huey P. Newton

Tracing the birth of a revolutionary, Huey P. Newton's famous and oft-quoted autobiography is as much a manifesto as a portrait of the inner circle of America's Black Panther Party. From Newton's impoverished childhood on the streets of Oakland to his adolescence and struggles with the system, from his role in the Black Panthers to his solitary confinement in the Alameda County Jail, Revolutionary Suicide is unrepentant and thought-provoking in its portrayal of inspired radicalism.

Authenticity.

Love the details of the story telling. Could not only visualize, but could feel the love, energy and resistance of Newtons mission.

A great read (or listen)

Not only is this a great listen, it’s a great book that’s well written. Even though I’m not big on autobiographies, I’m glad I read it.

The meaning of revolutionary suicide

To truly stand up for what you believe in and being willing to fight for it through whatever may come

Phenomenal Book

Huey P Newton. Mainstream media really did a horrible job at portraying his character and intellectualism. He's very clear in his explanations, his references and his story telling. Phenomenal book. I'm starting to recognize a pattern in how our most intellectual leaders have their images destroyed over the decades to prevent their ideas and messages from being passed down.

No words.

this is one of the best books I've read in my entire life not yo mention that the voice actors are incredible.
