Fifty-seven years ago in Oakland, the Black Panther Party was established. Photographer Ilka Hartmann was there, documenting many of the events in Oakland and the Bay Area of “The Sixties” social unrest.
ACLL has on loan from the photographer some of her historical images of these turbulent times when interest across the country and the world was focused here, including this photo of the Alameda County Courthouse during the 1968 Bobby Hutton Memorial rally.
You can view the display of these images during ACLL’s normal business hours. M-F 9:00am to 4:00pm. We are located at 125 12th Street in Oakland.
