A great read.
A very important text in American history. Offers often overlooked perspectives on law, the justice system, and rights (versus privileges).

Turning the Ship Around
This smallish paperback book is just possibly the most influential piece of literature written in the 20th century. The topic is revolution, the issues, racism and sexual discrimination, the incident, the imprisonment of Angela Davis (and many others). There are contributions from some of the most famous revolutionaries of the 20th century. They did not achieve their goals as stated. However, what is revolution? The ship of state confronted their movement and changed direction, no doubt about that. Two overtly racist systems came down, here and in South Africa. On the cover of the book, you may see a picture of the young Angela, smiling, with the large afro hairdo we have come to know. May you be forever young.

Eye opening accounts.
Written by Civil Rights activists in the 1970s about their experiences with the American police, courts and prisons. It's an amazing book, bringing recent history to life through the words of people who lived it. Highly recommended!
