A review by ibk
Revolutionary Suicide by Huey P. Newton
5.0
It's hard to articulate how magnificent I thought this book was.
Huey's mind was... so sharp and incredible. And he has this ability to articulate some of the most raw emotions and the most complicated philosophies, buried under layers of societal & institutional oppression, as if they were truths coming from the cosmos themselves. Huey articulated his personal journey and the intimacies within them to make it feel like you were in his body during his experiences. Something about the relatability really stood out. But what's awesome is that within his journey he would interject these seeds of brilliant philosophy effortlessly in his narrative. And there was so much to unpack in each of these moments
Needless to say I hold this book in the highest possible regard.
