- Stokely Is a Riot Pinback

No Place, No publisher. Unbound. No publisher, place or date. Presumed mid to late 1960s. Measures 1 ¼ inches in diameter. Dark yellow background with reddish brown printing. A pinback promoting Stokely Carmichael (Kwame Ture) and his work. Ture was a civil rights leader and Black power activist, chairing the SNCC, and promoting the idea of Black power, raising awareness to the term and its ideology. The pin itself may refer to the 1968 Washington DC riots that occurred after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The FBI tried to tie him to the riots, and its COINTELPRO branch planted the idea that he worked for the CIA, leading to a break between him and the Black Panther Party. By 1969, Ture lived in exile in Africa. VERY GOOD condition. Minor soiling and rubbing. Light rusting to the reverse. Very Good .
