Summary
This new edition of Angela Davis’s classic Autobiography features an expansive new introduction by the author.

Angela Davis has been a political activist at the cutting edge of the Black Liberation, feminist, queer, and prison-abolitionist movements for more than fifty years.

Angela Davis: An Autobiography, first published and edited by Toni Morrison in 1974, is a powerful and commanding account of her early years in these struggles.

Davis describes her journey from a childhood on Dynamite Hill in Birmingham, Alabama, to one of the most significant political trials of the century: from her political activity in a New York high school to her work with the US Communist Party, the Black Panther Party, and the Soledad Brothers; and from the faculty of the philosophy department at the University of California at Los Angeles to the FBI’s list of the “Ten Most Wanted Fugitives.”

Read by Angela Davis herself, this autobiography, told with warmth, brilliance, humor, and conviction, is a classic account of a life in struggle, with echoes in our own time.

Angela Davis is such an engaging and talented author, I recommend her autobiography to anyone that wants to get more familiar with her work. The way she reads her autobiography aloud to her audience makes you feel like you are catching up with an old friend. There is no doubt that Angela Davis has made invaluable contributions to American politics and her words will continue to teach and inspire for generations.

for her to insist on reading her own material proves that she's a worthy writer, a fact that I never had any doubt about. I am allied with her, bob Dylan, bobby sealed, Joan Baez Dr.King, Malcom X, Cesar Chavez, the brünner meinhoffer gang and the rest of my people. they released the Anna Mae Wong doll today maybe that will inspire still more color in Hollywood.....left color, and new left in genera, but remember....in this case, differing kinds of White are also an ethnicityl. remember the lessons if WWII our world is built on ALL of that, many white atheist socialists were killed in the death camps too. as well as pan Europeans. but, Israel is the second third Reich for sure as butter is soft.
