EMORY DOUGLAS AND CALEB DUARTE

Emory Douglas, Former Minister of Culture, Black Panther Party

Caleb Duarte, Artist in Residence La PeNa Cultural Center & Founder EDELO 

Zapantera Negra is a direct connection between a major social movement in US history (the Black Panthers) and the people of Chiapas, carrying the legacy and expressions of an equally revolutionary struggle in Mexico (the Zapatistas), some thirty years apart. The subtlety and complexity of this unity, and its implications for a globally engaged arts-based activism is truly impressive.
