🤲 Black History Month Socialist Spotlight 🤲
|
This week, we honor Angela Davis for her rigorous determination to see a better world through the dismantling of capitalism and its inherent oppression. In her work, she shows us that the fight for racial justice, women's liberation, and workers' rights are all part of the same struggle — the struggle to build a world where human need triumphs over profit, solidarity defeats division, and true freedom belongs to all.
Check out some of her work in these books:
- Women, Race and Class
- Are Prisons Obsolete?
- Freedom Is a Constant Struggle: Ferguson, Palestine, and the Foundations of a Movement
And check back here all month for more Black socialist shoutouts.
