Dr. Huey Percy Newton (February 17, 1942 – August 22, 1989) was an African-American political activist and revolutionary who, along with Bobby Seale, co-founded the Black Panther Party in 1966. Newton had a long series of confrontations with law enforcement, including several convictions, while he participated in political activism. He continued to pursue an education, eventually earning a Ph.D. in social philosophy. Newton spent time in prison for manslaughter due to his alleged involvement in a shooting that killed a police officer, but was later acquitted. In 1989 he was shot and killed in Oakland, California.
Newton was born in Monroe, Louisiana. He was the youngest of seven children of Armelia Johnson and Walter Newton, a sharecropper and Baptist lay preacher. His parents named him after former Governor of Louisiana Huey Long. In 1945, the family migrated to Oakland, California, as part of the second wave of the Great Migration of African Americans out of the South to the Midwest and West. The Newton family was quite poor and often relocated throughout the San Francisco Bay Area during Newton's childhood, although he said his family was close-knit, and that he never went without food and shelter as a child. Growing up in Oakland, Newton stated that he was "made to feel ashamed of being black." In his autobiography, Revolutionary Suicide, he wrote,

Huey is asked dumb shit by stupid reporters who try to grill him but fail. Also Jane Fonda's hanging around because Huey used to stay at her pad and she was allied with the BPP for awhile, until they started calling her a white bitch and using her for monetary gain lol.

I think that we differ from some other groups simply because we understand the system better than most groups understand the system. With this realization we attempt to form a strong political base based in the community with the only strength that we have and thats the strength of a potentially destructive force If we don’t get freedom.” http://malcolmxfiles.blogspot.com/
Oakland Community School featured on Rebop with interview of Huey P. Newton
The first interview is Huey in prison in the late 60s, and the last two are from around 1977 when he was on trial for killing a 17 year old prostitute named Kathleen Smith. He also has to defend himself from charges that he ordered other Panthers to assassinate key witness Crystal Gray. Got damn.

Fast livin, Good weed, Bad women,
Rollin up joints with hash in 'em.
True pot head, do everything last minue.
Not concerned with the cash I'm spendin
Because the cash I get it
Groupies fall through an crash with us
Watch movies, laugh
Go in they bag and smoke they last with us
Bongs, bowls, vapors, gas masks and stuff
Niggas know we the shit, cameras flash on us
Roll the grass up, bottles on chill, fill ya glass up
Niggas losin they bitches soon as they glance,
Cause they know the difference between the small time business
And the enterprise my nigga
Ain't been gone, it's just been a while my nigga
Battery strong, I'm energized my nigga

Haters sayin I changed, I say look at my chain MAANNEEE
