Protestors on May 1, 1969, in Hartford carried signs bearing a photograph of Huey P. Newton, a founder of the Black Panther party, and flags with the party emblem, a charging black panther. The Black Panther party was an often-militant group determined to bring justice to African Americans and was philosophically opposed to Dr. King's program of nonviolent resistance.
