Voices of Social Change: A Conversation with Angela Davis
Voices of Social Change: A Conversation with Angela Davis
"Radical Simply Means 'Grasping Things at the Root"
Angela Davis is a powerful voice for the oppressed. As a feminist and civil rights activist, Davis' life has revolved around resistance to injustices, reminding us all to contest the narrative that change has come only as a result of heroic individuals, and instead recognize ourselves as part of a collective movement.
Davis uses her world-renowned voice to advocate for the abolishment of the prison industry complex, which she argues is the "most dramatic example of the destructive tendencies of global capitalism."
