Showdown in Desire: The Black Panthers Take a Stand in New Orleans 1st edition

Portrays the Black Panther Party in New Orleans in 1970, a year that included a shootout with a police on Piety Street, the creation of survival programs, and a daylong standoff between the Panthers and the police in the Desire housing development. Orissa Arend tells a nuanced story that captures the palpable spirit of rebellion, resistance, and revolution of an incendiary summer in New Orleans.
