Description
A former captain in the Black Panther Party and bodyguard to Eldridge Cleaver, Brent hijacked a plane to Cuba in June 1969 to avoid standing trial on charges stemming from a shootout with San Francisco police. To his surprise, however, upon his arrival in Havana, he was put in prison for 22 months. Now, at age 64, Brent has written his unique memoir. Photos.
