Back cover, The Black Panther, January 23, 1971

Today We Honor Emory Douglas Born in 1943 in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Emory Douglas has been a resident of the Bay Area since 1951. He became the Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party in 1967, a role he held until the party disbanded in the early 1980s. During the Party’s active years he served as the art director overseeing the design and layout of the Black Panther, the Party’s weekly newspaper. Douglas was trained as a commercial artist at City College of San Francisco and has been the subject of several solo exhibitions. His work has also been in numerous exhibitions about the history of the Black Panther Party, including shows at the Arts & Culture Conference of the Black Panther Party in Atlanta, GA in 2008 and “The Black Panther Rank and File” at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco in 2006. Most recently his work was the subject of a solo exhibition at Urbis, Manchester, UK in 2008-2009. In 2007, artist Sam Durant curated a solo exhibition of Douglas’ work at the MOCA Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles, “Black Panther: The Revolutionary Art of Emory Douglas,” which is the inspiration for the presentation at the New Museum. The same year, Rizzoli published a book with the same title that included essays and interviews about Douglas’s work and his relationship to the Black Panther Party. Douglas’s work has also been presented at the 2008 Biennale of Sydney, Australia; the African American Art & Cultural Complex, San Francisco; Richmond Art Center, CA; and the Station Museum of Contemporary Art, Houston. via gclass.org | CARTER™️ Magazine carter-mag.com #wherehistoryandhiphopmeet #historyandhiphop365 #carter #cartermagazine #emorydouglas #blackpanther #blackpantherparty #blackhistorymonth #blackhistory #history #staywoke https://www.instagram.com/p/ChZNS6sOedk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Still a few of these left! Scroll down the feed for a full list. 🔴=dunzo ・・・ Aye! I'm selling my BHiIOW pencils for booze and baguette money. Prince, Hendrix, Ali are sold. A lot of these are still available though. Scroll down the feed to see the rest. $200 nets you an original and the smug satisfaction that you helped sustain me while I made Sunset Park. Holler at my DMs with inquiries. —I'm taking these off the market come Monday. Black History in Its Own Words is in comic stores from 2/8/17! #blackhistoryinitsownwords #comics #originals #ronaldwimberly #imagecomics #KatherineJohnson🔴 #MarryEllenPleasant #NinaSimone #Prince🔴 #RAMMΣLLZΣΣ🔴 #EmoryDouglas #EugeneBullard #JimiHendrix🔴 #AssataShakur #bellhooks🔴 #sojournertruth #cathaywilliams #youngma
