😚 Thank You!

"BE CRITICAL OF THAT WHICH IS MOST NORMAL! " Graditude to Angela. That is my personal summary of 2020. Altho I'm not just critical of. it's changed my entire everything to do my best to not be apart of it. Challenge it in my own heart and life.

Some of the comments on this thread are very ignorant. Ignorant meaning they don't know what the heck they're talking about. It doesn't matter if these comments "come from the heart," or "are sincere." They are ignorant. Davis grew up around people who were fighting for a better world - specifically, Communists. Her mother worked in a Communist Party front group, the Southern Negro Youth Congress. Sallye Bell Davis may or may not have been a member herself. Her neighbors and family friends in Alabama were Black Communists, some who were forced underground. This is the environment in which Davis was raised in how to live a decent life. Calling her a "Stalinist," as many old US media were prone to do in order to smear someone with a single word, shows equal ignorance. On so many levels. The name caller obviously knows nothing about Angela Davis, the CPUSA, or Joseph Stalin and the USSR. Nothing. And this is where, nauseously predictably, the question "didn't Stalin do x, y, z?" is asked and is supposed to prove this person's piss-ignorant assertions. Choose your talking points. But the MOVEMENT that produced Angela Davis produced many people, and it was a movement uniquely committed to labor and racial justice, an end to poverty and to peace, and a broader sense of democracy.

At 0:45 seconds: The interviewer is wearing nice white sneakers, which would be beautiful with modest shorts if worn outside; but, these are too glaring and causal along with the black outfit and long pants/trousers. I suppose it cuts down on the significance and grandeur of interviewing an, albeit, improved person from her heyday; however, she is still not so prestigious nor premier.

Nobody cares, we're here for Ms Davis' words not the interviewer's clothing

All the years in jail changed her mind and wants
