Emory Douglas: Black Panther
Emory Douglas, minister of culture and activist for the Black Panthers in the 1960s and 1970s, invented a bold graphic style to transmit his party’s militant agenda. Over two decades Douglas created countless artworks, illustrations, and cartoons, of which over 165 are displayed here, and 40 years on they remain just as powerful and arresting as when he first created them.
