After learning about the history of the free breakfast program, and looking forward to Judas the Black Messiah, I'd like to learn more about the history of the Black Panthers. Searching for good books about this is somewhat complicated by items and information about Black Panther the Marvel character - which is great, but not what I am looking for. What are great books about the history of the Black Panther movement in the US?

Interested in biographies, popular histories, works written recently, and works written contemporaneously with the development of the movement. Also helpful would be which authors to look for. I am interested in their contribution to civil rights, civic life, and persecution by the US government.
