America in the 1970s was a time of immense political, social and cultural change. Now, the turbulent decade provides the backdrop to the stranger-than-fiction true story of how Black Panther Party co-founder Huey P. Newton tried to escape the clutches of the FBI.
Apple TV+ six-parter The Big Cigar follows Newton and his college buddy Bobby Seale, who founded the Black Panthers, a revolutionary organisation that promoted armed self- defence for Black citizens to protect against police brutality.
