Esteemed activist Angela Y. Davis guides us through a sweeping examination of revolutionary and anti-racist movements worldwide. From the Black Panther Party to the anti-apartheid fight in South Africa, Davis reveals the common threads of resistance against state brutality and injustice. Facing an unjust world, she challenges us to imagine and build a movement for human liberation, reminding us that "freedom is a constant struggle". At the heart of Davis' powerful work lies a call for intersectional solidarity - across borders, identities, and generations - to confront entrenched systems of oppression.
