Legendary civil rights attorney Tony Serra reflects on one of the most defining chapters of his early legal career: defending Black Panther Party co-founder Huey Newton.
Through vivid recollections, Serra transports us to the charged atmosphere of the late 1960s and early 70s, an era marked by surveillance, revolution, and resistance. From sleeping in the Panther safehouses to dismantling false testimony against Huey Newton in a high-stakes death penalty trial, Serra's account transcends legal history.
It's a powerful reflection on courage, conscience, and the enduring link between law and liberation.
