violent, communist insurgent group. Like the last, I was able to use an image of this newspaper
source as an image for my website.

media worked to attract readers.

occurred between the Black Panthers and other proponents of Civil Rights. Specifically, it
captures how the NAACP and the Black Panthers were pitted against each other based upon
misconceptions about the Black Panther Party.

captured the shift towards Black Power in the second half of the Civil Rights Movement. The
SNCC, which advocated non-violence, supported Black Power to an extent, showing how Black
Power could not be an inherently violent ideology.
