Honoring the 60th Anniversary of the Black Panther Party

We are excited to announce the launch of the revised 2026 edition of Educate to Liberate, a limited-edition capsule collection created in collaboration with The Black Panther Party Alumni Legacy Network (BPPALN), Shepard Fairey (Obey Giant), and Oaklandish. This collection showcases Shepard Fairey's AP2TP (All Power to the People) artwork, featuring a portrait of Bobby Seale, the co-founder of the Black Panther Party, along with updated commemorative details to celebrate its 60th Anniversary.

The vision of the Black Panther Party was to uplift and empower the Black community and challenge global injustices.  Its legacy has significantly influenced Oakland's Black community and continues to inspire, educate, and mobilize communities around the world.

From monitoring police violence to providing meals for Black youth, the Black Panther Party is renowned for its focus on empowering and uplifting all Black and oppressed people. Founded in 1966, the Party is deeply rooted in community service, which is demonstrated through over 65 survival programs that have emerged from its initiatives.

Now available in a premium crewneck sweatshirt and T-shirt, this collection allows you to express your love and support for the Black Panther Party while collecting a piece of history. Connect with the BPPALN, you can contribute to the ongoing efforts of living revolutionaries who are actively working to improve lives today.

Proceeds from sales support BPPALN's ongoing efforts to liberate community through educational initiatives, modern survival programs, and ensuring the everyday lives of Oakland's youth and elders are sustained with care, comfort, guidance, and protection.
