This may turn into something 🤔 Playing around with a few leftovers from Sandra Bland: A Queen Supreme (on exhibit at @houstonmaac ) …. Eldridge Cleaver spent much of his youth in reform school and prisons in California. He began writing while incarcerated. Freed on parole, he joined the Black Panthers and published his prison essays in Soul on Ice. Let the research begin 😬🤔 #collageart #collage #elridgecleaver #soulonice #blackpanther #research #psychology #literature #history https://www.instagram.com/p/CRVGi-RBCko/?utm_medium=tumblr

Found this book "Soul On Ice" by Eldridge Cleaver I first read it in college while attending University Of Utah. My copy served as a blueprint into black manhood so it was pretty hit and marked with highlighter and ink notes. I mean this book was my bible.
Eldridge Cleaver (1935-1998) wrote his magnum opus, Soul on Ice, while serving a prison sentence in the infamous Folsom State Prison before joining the Black Panther Party.
After spending seven years in exile in Cuba, Algeria, and France, Cleaver returned to the US in 1975, where he became involved in various religious groups (Unification Church and CARP) before finally joining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I was a student at University Of Utah in the 80's when I had a chance to meet Eldridge and sit in on several of his lectures.
Cleaver stated in Soul on Ice: "If a man like Malcolm X could change and repudiate racism, if I myself and other former Muslims can change, if young whites can change, then there is hope for America.
He became a fugitive after leading an ambush on Oakland police officers, during which two officers were wounded. Cleaver was also wounded during the clash and Black Panther member Bobby Hutton was killed. As editor of the official Panthers' newspaper, The Black Panther, Cleaver's influence on the direction of the Party was rivaled only by founders Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale. Cleaver and Newton eventually fell out with each other, resulting in a split that weakened the party.
