Huey P. Newton, Minister of Defense of the Black Panther Party at the Black Panther Party National Headquarters in Oakland, California, August 12, 1968. This photo is perhaps the most famous picture of Newton. On the left side, Newton is holding a gun representing the militancy of the Party and on the other side, Newton is holding a spear representing cultural nationalism and the connection to the third world. The original photo was taken by Ruth-Marion Baruch.
