Lot Description
[CIVIL RIGHTS]. Berkeley Liberation Program. [Berkeley, CA]: N.p., [1969].

17 1/2 x 22 1/2 in. double-sided poster (toning, some creasing and small chips to edges). 

The Berkeley Liberation Program was an early effort by Bay Area radicals to create a political vision for their city and community. Listed here are their 13 points, listed by title on the recto superimposed over a raised fist. The verso features explanations of each point, notably point 13: "We will unite with other movements throughout the world to destroy this motherfucking racistcapitalistimperialist [sic] system" which states explicitly: "We will actively support the 10-point program of the Black Panther Party in the black colony." 

This lot is located in Cincinnati.
