Murder in the Model City

The Black Panthers, Yale, And the Redemption of a Killer

  • 5 Want to read

"Rae and Bass recount the circuslike trial of eight Black Panthers accused of killing a suspected spy among them. After the body of Alex Rackley was discovered near New Haven on May 21, 1969, Bobby Seale, the Black Panther Party's National Chairman, and seven others were called to court. Rae and Bass contrast the events with the story of Warren Kimbro, the man who was sentenced to life for Rackley's killing. Kimbro served less than four years before being released, and graduated from Harvard shortly afterward."--Publishers Weekly.
