About the Item
This powerful original French poster from the early 1970s captures the fire of international solidarity with the American Black Power movement. Featuring a striking halftone image of Angela Davis — mouth open mid-speech, microphone in hand — the poster radiates urgency, defiance, and dignity.
The caption below reads:
Libérons Bobby, Ericka, Angela, les frères de Soledad.
Les murs, les barreaux, les fusils et les gardes ne peuvent jamais encercler ou venir à bout de l'idée de peuple.
(Translation: Free Bobby, Ericka, Angela, the Soledad Brothers. The walls, bars, guns and guards can never encircle or overcome the idea of the people.)
A manifesto in visual form, this poster echoes the global struggle for racial justice — calling out the names of key Black Panther Party figures:
Bobby Seale, co-founder of the Panthers
Ericka Huggins, educator and activist
Angela Davis, philosopher and political prisoner
The Soledad Brothers, Black inmates wrongfully charged with murder
Printed in France, this poster is part of the international wave of protest that rallied around Black liberation in the U.S., especially following Davis’s 1970 arrest and trial. It reflects how her cause transcended borders, becoming a symbol of resistance far beyond America.
A rare and deeply evocative artifact from a critical moment in revolutionary history — where the image, the words, and the politics are inseparable.
