SYNOPSIS
A powerful and commanding account of the life of trailblazing political activist Angela Davis
Edited by Toni Morrison and first published in 1974, An Autobiography is a classic of the Black Liberation era which resonates just as powerfully today. It is reissued now with a new introduction by Davis, for a new audience inspired and galvanised by her ongoing activism and her extraordinary example.
In the book, she describes her journey from a childhood on Dynamite Hill in Birmingham, Alabama, to one of the most significant political trials of the century: from her political activity in a New York high school to her work with the U.S. Communist Party, the Black Panther Party, and the Soledad Brothers; and from the faculty of the Philosophy Department at UCLA to the FBI's list of the Ten Most Wanted Fugitives.
Told with warmth, brilliance, humour, and conviction, it is an unforgettable account of a life committed to radical change.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Angela Davis
Ícone da luta pelos direitos civis, próxima do grupo dos Panteras Negras, por duas vezes candidata à vice-presidência dos Estados Unidos, Angela Davis é uma das ativistas mais incómodas deste século e do anterior. Nascida na pobreza em 1944, descendente de escravos, uma bolsa permitiu-lhe ir para Nova Iorque e formar-se em Filosofia. No Verão de 1970, acusada de conspiração na fuga de três prisioneiros em São Francisco, ingressou na lista dos mais procurados pelo FBI; capturada, diabolizada pelas autoridades (mulher, negra, marxista), foi absolvida após um julgamento mediático e um forte movimento popular pela sua libertação. O combate à discriminação racial e às assimetrias sociais, a militância pelos direitos das mulheres e a saga pelo desmantelamento das prisões transparecem na sua vasta obra – na qual se destacam Women, Race, and Class (1981) e Are Prisons Obsolete? (2003) –, que denuncia formas de encarceramento humano e nos ensina a olhar para os calabouços do mundo.
