Alive in Bronze: Huey P. Newton

Sculptor Dana King’s hands and activist Fredrika Newton’s memories come together to build a new monument that honors the Black Panther Party’s vital place in American history.

ALIVE IN BRONZE: HUEY P. NEWTON centers on the memories of sculptor Dana King and activist Fredrika Newton as King was creating the long-time awaited monument—a bust of Black Panther Party leader Huey P. Newton for the Oakland community that he loved and shaped. As the sculpture takes form, more than just a face is revealed. From the project’s conception through its community unveiling, these two women take us on a journey to reclaim erased histories—personal and collective—and to rededicate them to the future.
