On February 16, 1969 at the Berkeley Community Theatre, a large crowd celebrated the birthday of Huey P. Newton and heard a variety of guests speak on Black power, revolution, the New Left, and the justice of Black America. Speakers include Father Earl Neil, Black Panther attorney Charles Garry, a recording of Huey P. Newton speaking from the prison in Vacaville, a recording of another member of the Black Panther Party talking about Newton, and Bobby Seale. The recording ends after Seale introduces the next speaker, Roger Alvarado. The second part of the program is not currently held by the Archives.
