"Huey left prison a major celebrity, which was an identity he did not want or welcome. He understood that leaders of social protest movements had frequently been turned into celebrities by the media and the effectiveness of these individuals to lead was destroyed in the process. Besides, genuine social change didnt come from celebrities, Huey argued, but from the people themselves. He never lost sight of the fact that only the masses had the ability to transform society, and the Partys slogan ” all power to the people” was a potent testament to this belief."
