Angela Davis: How Does Change Happen?

[@janetleden6675]

I voted for her when she ran for Vice President, when the voting age was 21. I still today look to her for strength and guidance.

[@DJK-cq2uy]

Fat deal!!

[@user-dh6yv9uo4k]

Angela Davis is living proof things like segregation and the Civil Rights movement are not lost in the distant past but rather a very recent series of shifts in American society who’s echos still affect the way we live today

[@chelseaphilice7458]

That part !!!

[@ddale20]

The great divide is self inflicted. If you think of the world as racist, you will find excuses not to succeed. Angela Davis knows that’s not true.

[@animilautrec]

I met her in Philadelphia, she's a beautiful example of how great a human can be. Not to mention her speech was moving and AMAZING.

Change is achieved when the collective decides things are not going to stay as they are and collectively acts for change.

[@bjsaustralasian3850]

Outstanding and truly moving. What an honour in one's later life to be able to still enjoy the continuing brilliance of Angela Davis. An enduring inspiration, for generations to come. Bravo indeed.

[@kandibazaar]

Angela dear I wrote a paper about you when I was 12 years old. You were my hero and my start of being a protester against the Vietnam War. I wore a black arm band in honor of the MIA in the war. and walked out of my junior high class. You were my hero just as Nina Turner and Brianna Joy -- they are the backbone behind the Bernie Bros -- Bernie was too connected to the establishment he went way further than the establishment had wanted. So he is now under their beck and call. He will be their spokesman -- he knows the progressive will not follow him. So nina Turner is taking the baton and passing it on to us -- we the people "hell'o somebody."

Warning to all African countries! Ethnic-based federation experimenting in Ethiopia caused much damage. The fascist Nazi communist TPLF from the Tigray region experimented with the ideology of the federation which they never understood, the same with communism which they also had difficulties among the Ethiopian people. This social experiment caused ethnic cleansing and apartheid among Africans. The international community eagerly followed the experiments, and some were aware and warned that it would lead to civil war. That's what's happening now.

[@chelseaphilice7458]

Doubt she “sanctioned” the torture . Doubt she had political power as a black woman in Czechoslovakia ... as she said in the lecture which I DOUBT you listened to whole thing ... sometimes history and what men say isn’t exactly what happened . &&& as she said communism just like any other system can be corrupted as PEOPLE/INDIVIDUALS who are in power tend to succumb to corruption . She said even the black panthers were toxic & fell off course doesn’t mean that she shouldn’t have joined them and enacted the changes in their community and the world that they did

@Too Cool For Cardi I agree 100%. I'm an african woman who lives in Denmark and have never stepped a foot in America. I have been doing research on black history. Whether it's american american, black british or african. So many voices were left out, especially black female voices. And looking at what is going on right now, it is very clear that it is still happening. I'm so saddened by the fact that I see many people only mention black men when they are talking about the black lives matter movement. And it breaks my heart. Black men's voices deserves to be heard. Black men's voices deserves to taken seriously. But black women's voices go unheard unless they are talking about another dead black man. Black women are also victims of the same system. Let's be very clear, what police officers do to black men doctors to to black women. We are not taken seriously at all.
