Huey Newton was not a film actor; he was a prominent African-American political activist and revolutionary. Born on February 17, 1942, in Monroe, Louisiana, he co-founded the Black Panther Party in 1966, advocating for African-American rights and self-defense in response to systemic racism and police brutality. Newton pursued education at Merritt College and later earned a Ph.D. from the University of California, Santa Cruz. His activism left a lasting impact on civil rights movements. Newton passed away in 1989.
