Review of 'Freedom Is a Constant Struggle' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

There's a reason Angela Davis is considered such a champion in the movement for prison abolition, anti-racism, feminism, and equality. This book is a collection of her essays and speeches where she speaks her mind on these subjects and also the liberation of Palestine.
It is moving and inspiring, clear-sighted, and a great introduction to these struggles. She makes a strong case for international solidarity and links the cause of freedom in Palestine to the Prison Industrial Complex in the United States and along with the world.
She highlights the need for collective movements and points out how even if we tend to remember individuals like MLK, it is actually that they are just the memorable face of a huge collective movement that formed and supported them.
Powerful words from a legendary woman with a brilliant mind.
