Sostre
This portrait of Martin Sostre was created in the early 1970s by his political comrade Jerry Ross. Ross was an anti–Vietnam War activist in Buffalo, New York, and frequented Sostre’s Afro-Asian bookstore before Sostre was framed and imprisoned in 1967. Ross was active in the Martin Sostre Defense Committee and pushed Amnesty International to name Sostre a “prisoner of conscience” in 1973.
