description: When Huey P. Newton, co-founder and ideologist of the Black Panther Party, disappeared in August, 1974, he left behind his "Insights," which embody, as Ericka Huggins has said, "a sensitivity and a humanness that make this man, in his aloneness, a friend to all people." Ericka Huggins's poems are the telling introspective record of her own life during the years since her husband, Jon Huggins, was assassinated in Los Angeles in 1969. Since then she has also co-edited the Black Panther newspaper and is director of the Intercommunal Youth Institute, a model elementary school in Oakland.
