Black Panther activist Eldridge Cleaver and his wife are interviewed by William Klein. Cleaver speaks from exile in Algeria, a move prompted by the state of California’s decision to view criminal indictment as a parole violation.

Vogue photographer William Klein was in Algiers to film the Pan-African Cultural Festival when he met an exiled Eldridge Cleaver. Klein captures the mercurial personality of the controversial Black Panther Party figure as he moves through Algiers. A fascinating portrait and radical time capsule.
