About this listen

In these newly collected essays, interviews, and speeches, world-renowned activist and scholar Angela Y. Davis illuminates the connections between struggles against state violence and oppression throughout history and around the world.

Reflecting on the importance of Black feminism, intersectionality, and prison abolitionism for today's struggles, Davis discusses the legacies of previous liberation struggles - from the Black freedom movement to the South African antiapartheid movement. She highlights connections and analyzes today's struggles against state terror, from Ferguson to Palestine.

Facing a world of outrageous injustice, Davis challenges us to imagine and build the movement for human liberation. And in doing so, she reminds us that "freedom is a constant struggle."

A critically important review of Angela Davis' work, told through her own writing and lectures, narrated by Angela Davis herself.

I appreciated how straight forward she is throughout: the audience/listeners/readers are assumed to have sufficient knowledge and be sufficiently engaged in the struggle to need no coddling. I found that refreshing.

Davis' understated narration style allowed the words to speak for themselves.

Very important
