Good students will identify Stokely Carmichael and the sit-in movement, the Watts riots, the growth of the Black Muslims under Malcolm X, and the armed presence of the Black Panther Party in most major American cities as expressions of Black Power. In effect, Black Power represented an eclectic response to the perceived inability of more legitimate types of protest to solve the mounting problems facing black youth during the 1960s.
