Having completed Angela Davis: An autobiography Inow feel I know and understand Dr Davis very well. She comes across as a very humble, likeable, unselfish and relatable woman. This memoir covers the most significant aspects of her life at the time of writing including her family/ upbringing, her close friends and comrades, her education, her arrest and trial, her teaching and firing, her trip to Cuba and her decision making around joining the Communist Party.
By reading this memoir you will not only learn a great deal about Angela you will be introduced to many other topics incl: mass movement, organizing, communism, socialism, capitalism, political prisoners, prison reform, the Black Liberation Struggle, feminism, Soledad, San Quentin,m etc etc I could go on an on. A well put together, thoughtful memoir that also serves as a good overview of the Civil Rights struggle in the USA. I highly recommend.
She is on the level of King, Jr. and Malcolm X when it comes to fighting for civil rights for ALL!!
