The Organised Youth project, a group of 13-25 year olds who were inspired by the British Panthers and wanted to present their history to a new generation, have arranged the exhibition.
Neil Kenlock, photographer for the British Black Panthers said: “This Organised Youth project by young people from Brixton has brought the stories of our time as British Black Power fighters back into the public consciousness. Their exhibition at Photofusion Gallery is a celebration of our hard work and a testament to the potential in young people”
