Who Was Eldridge Cleaver | A Chameleon and Dissident

Leroy Eldridge Cleaver was a member of the Black Panther Party. In 1968, Cleaver wrote Soul on Ice, a collection of essays that, at the time of its publication, was praised by The New York Times Book Review as "brilliant and revealing". In 1968, he became a fugitive after leading an ambush on Oakland police officers, during which two officers were wounded. Cleaver was 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. After spending seven years in exile in Cuba, Algeria, and France, Cleaver returned to the U.S. in 1975, where he became involved in various religious groups before joining the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as well as becoming a conservative Republican, appearing at Republican events. --- The Black Panther Playlist:    • The Black Panther Party   --- Join my newsletter: https://insomniancs.substack.com/ --- Donate | https://ultrxblxck.com/support/ Contact | https://ultrxblxck.com/contact/ --- #History #educational #revolution #blackhistory
