How the Black Panther Party Branded Itself

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Mar 20, 2023

A new exhibition on view at Poster House looks at the branding and graphic language of the Black Panther Party, and the historical context that informed how the party went about portraying itself in posters, advertisements, and slogans. Black Power to Black People: Branding the Black Panther Party features 37 works from the years 1932 to 1980, with newspaper clippings, campaign posters, and images of Party leaders. Curator Es-pranza Humphrey tells us more about the history and the exhibition, which is on view until September 10.
