Abolition: Politics, Practices, Promises, Vol. 1

A major new collection of essays and interviews from pioneering freedom fighter Angela Y. Davis For over fifty years, Angela Y. Davis has been at the forefront of collective movements for abolition and feminism and the fight against state violence and oppression. Abolition: Politics, Practices, Promises, the first of two important new volumes, brings together an essential collection of Davis's essays, conversations, and interviews over the years, showing how her thinking has sharpened and evolved even as she has remained uncompromising in her commitment to collective liberation. In pieces that address the history of abolitionist practice, the unique contributions of women to abolitionist struggles, and stories from organizing inside and beyond prison walls, Davis is always curious, always incisive, and always learning. Rich and rewarding, Abolition: Politics, Practices, Promises will appeal to fans of Davis, to students and scholars reflecting on her life and work, and to readers new to feminism, abolition, and struggles for liberation. 'An activist. An author. A scholar. An abolitionist. A legend' Ibram X. Kendi 'Before the world knew what intersectionality was, the scholar, writer and activist was living it, arguing not just for Black liberation, but for the rights of women and queer and transgender people as well' New York Times
