AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY - ANGELA Y DAVIS KARTONIERT (TB)

'Riveting  as fresh and relevant today as it was almost 50 years ago. The words fire off the
page with humour  anger and eloquence' Guardian   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.
