Stokely Carmichael coined the phrase "Black Power" and looked upon it as a unifying force within the Civil Rights Movement. Formerly part of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), Stokely expressed frustration over being jailed and beaten while advocating non violence and wanted to drop the moderate approach to more militancy.
Stokely Carmichael was a leader of the civil rights movement most notably as the leader of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC). He was also a member of the Black Panther Party and the All-African People\'s Revolutionary Party. He is remembered for popularizing the phrase "Black Power" and his involvement in the Lowndes County Freedom Organization which adopted the Black Panther as its symbol. He later changed his name to Kwame Ture in honor of two African revolutionaries Kwame Nkrumah and Ahmed Sekou Toure.
