The Takedown of Tupac Shakur [Note: This is a1997 article from ‘The New Yorker’ magazine. A little outside the usual range of material for this page. However, the article not only talks about the background, life, and murder of an artist who continues to inspire a generation to speak out. It also discusses some history of the Black Panthers, COINTELPRO, and corruption within the record industry. Over 10 years later, much of its content remains relevant.]
