"When Angela Davis (b. 1944) was placed on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list in 1970
and after she successfully gained acquittal in the 1972 trial that garnered national
and international attention, she became one of the most recognizable and iconic figures
in the twentieth century. An outspoken advocate for the oppressed and exploited, she
has written extensively about the intersections between race, class, and gender; Black
liberation; and the US prison system. Conversations with Angela Davis seeks to explore
Davis's role as an educator, scholar, and activist who continues to engage in important
and significant social justice work. Featuring seventeen interviews ranging from the
1970s to the present day, the volume chronicles Davis's life and her involvement with
and influence on important and significant historical and cultural events. Davis comments
on a range of topics relevant to social, economic, and political issues from national
and international contexts, and taken together, the interviews explore how her views
have evolved over the past several decades. The volume provides insight on Davis's
relationships with such organizations as the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee,
the Communist Party, the Green Party, and Critical Resistance, and how Davis has fought
for racial, gender, and social and economic equality in the US and abroad. Conversations
with Angela Davis also addresses her ongoing work in the prison abolition movement"
