The Black Panther Party's Narratives Of Resistance, David Ray Papke
The Black Panther Party's Narratives Of Resistance, David Ray Papke
Faculty Publications
Papke’s article illustrates the power and importance of personal storytelling. To illustrate his point, Papke focuses on the personal narratives of Huey Newton, Bobby Seale and Eldridge Cleaver; important leaders in the development of the Black Panther Party. Papke uses their personal narratives as a means to explain their ideological underpinnings as well as their condemnation of the police department as an oppressive institution. The article also demonstrates how narratives can be illustrative of countering social pressures. In this case those interested in resisting the dominating influence of one group may benefit from the narratives of these individuals.

The article surveys several specific metaphors that have been recurrently used - including the judge as "umpire," "hit-and-run," and "three strikes and you're out" - and considers the ways in which the use of such metaphors might direct thought about the underlying subject matter in inappropriate directions.
