Interviews and photographic essays highlight the spirit of the 70's New York-based organization of Puerto Rican radicals, the Young Lords.

In 1969, a group of young Puerto Rican activists founded the Young Lords Party in New York, taking inspiration from the Black Panthers. Palante, the first book by and about the radical organisation, is brought back into print with new introductory material. Capturing the spirit and actions of the 1960s, Palante features political essays by the group's original members, oral histories of their lives and more than 75 photos of their membership and actions.
