ABOUT THIS WARRIOR:

Huey Percy Newton (February 17, 1942 – August 22, 1989), was co-founder and leader of the Black Panther Party for Self Defense, a black internationalist and racial equality organization that began in October 1966.

Newton was born in Monroe, Louisiana to Amelia and Walter Newton, a sharecropper and Baptist minister; he was the seventh and youngest child in his family. Newton’s family moved to Oakland, California when he was three. Despite completing his secondary education at Oakland Technical High School, Newton did not know how to read. During his course of self-study, he struggled to read Plato’s Republic, which he understood after persistently reading it through five times. This success, he told an interviewer, was the spark that caused him to become a leader.
