(BLACK PANTHERS.) Move On Over or We'll Move On Over You. No place, circa 1966 Poster, 17 x 11 inches, on light card stock, illustrated with a stalking black panther; foxing, 3 tack hole, ½-inch tape stain in upper margin, other minor wear.  The black panther logo was created for the Lowndes County Freedom Organization, which began organizing voters in rural Alabama in 1965 under the direction of Stokely Carmichael and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. This poster introduced SNCC's new slogan, "Move On Over or We'll Move On Over You," when it was handed out at the 26 June 1966 conclusion of the March Against Fear in Jackson, MS (see next day's Louisville Courier-Journal and a photograph in the Tampa Times). An example can be seen hanging from a protester's back on the cover of the 2009 book "Bloody Lowndes: Civil Rights and Black Power in Alabama's Black Belt."
