◇ After
Black Panther Party imagery , armed Panthers in berets, and the BPP crouching-panther emblem · Black Panther Party (Oakland), from its 1967-68 press photographs and party emblem, 1967
Two men in berets and leather jackets flank a silhouetted third on flat yellow, one with a carbine slung, the other with a shotgun upright at his shoulder. A crouching panther sits in a red disc between them.
