A new coffee table book being released by Ammo Books will contain over 140 candid photos of members of the highly secretive group that have never been seen publicly. GQ reports:
In the ’60s, Life magazine had photographer Howard L. Bingham on what he calls “riot retainer.” He cut his teeth shooting the destruction of his own South Central L.A. neighborhood. He documented MLK’s funeral and the ’68 convention in Chicago. That same year, Life sent him to Oakland to live among a mysterious group of militant radicals, the Black Panther Party.
Bingham and journalist Gilbert Moore—one of Life’s two black reporters—spent months earning the Panthers’ trust, only to have the magazine kill the story. “I had no intention of writing a puff piece, trying to make them come off like Boy Scouts in leather,” writes Moore. And so the candid, intimate photos—of Eldridge and Kathleen Cleaver, a jailed Huey Newton, and Bobby Seale—were never published.
We love some good raw black and white photos!
