He expresses his opinions on what he believes Black Americans need to do to break free from white oppression. As a chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and from 1968 a member of the Black Panther Party, he was heavily involved with organizations that espoused a Black Power ideology.
After the subsequent conviction of Brown for murder in March 2002, the book was reprinted by Lawrence Hill Press with a foreword by Ekwueme Michael Thelwell.[3]
