Angela Davis - A Liberdade É Uma Luta Constante

In this selection of essays, interviews and speeches, renowned activist and academic Angela Davis sheds new light on the struggles against state violence and oppression in various parts of the world - from Palestine to South Africa - dismantling the structures of the capitalist system (patriarchy, white supremacy, imperial policies) that only survive by perpetuating conflicts.

Reflecting on the historical struggles of the black movement in the United States, the central place of feminism in the deconstruction of power relations and the abolition of the industrial prison system, A Liberdade É Uma Luta Constante (2015) forces us to look beyond our own backyard, to the “reservoirs of hope and optimism” that we find in resistant collectivities. When to give truce to injustice is to multiply forms of submission, Angela Davis challenges us to set an example by doing our part for a global movement for human liberation.
