Description
Through her own experience as a black woman and communist, Angela Davis has constantly been confronted with the different forms of oppression that shape our societies. Her intellectual and political journey remains traversed by this question: what is than freedom?
Angela Davis highlights with her well-known commitment the contradictions of a neoliberal society that exalts freedom while reinforcing oppression against immigrants, African-Americans, women and the working class. The author demonstrates that it is fundamental to link all the struggles concerning the different categories of the oppressed population, up to the struggles for the protection of the planet. Through the political line that she promotes in these texts, through her daily commitment, Angela Davis helps us to broaden our conception of freedom and thus to extend the domain of our struggles.
Building unity of struggle against all withdrawals, such is the meaning of this book.
This anthology presents texts that are mostly unpublished in French.
