      A lot of things were differen about the late 60s early seventies. Even before then people were being awakened to the many ways they/we were being mistreated and mass movements began to form. Health, housing, jobs, respect for the environment (and people), demands of all kinds began to emerge. The black Panthers were among those movements and wanted their voice to be heard too. Why shouldn't they? They were the descendants of people whose labor (mostly) built the country.

    Thank You, Big Sister, for your commitment to a life in the struggle. The first time I saw Professor Angela Davis was in the 70,s. I was just starting high school in Greenwood Mississippi, where JIM CROW was very much alive. From the minute I saw her on TV, I was instantly inspired and terrified. I had never heard anyone Black, let alone a Black Woman speak truth to the White power structure in such militant terms. She had an Afro like mine.
    I returned to the familiar routines of small-town Southern life, unaware that a seed had been planted. Today I am a Nurse with a consulting practice in Public Health, focused on Health literacy reducing, Health Disparities, and now fighting COVID-19. I am also actively engaged in meditation and other contemplative practices.

    Angela Davis is correct in saying that "self care" is important to the individual who plans to play a part in changing society for the best. Know thy self, and be intune with your mind and body, and the spiritual part of yourself. Yoga helps "relax" the mind and the body. Took a class in the 60's and 70's. I should have continue. God knows that we are living in a time of great unrest. Everyone seems so "stressed."

      Black Sheep hey. Personally, being a black woman in america is a different experience than one elsewhere but we have threads of commonality with black women everywhere. (1) its feeling unsafe walking around as a woman but amplified because you know if anything happened to you, it wouldnt matter as much to everyone. (2) feeling like you should be protected by your men but the reality is you have to protect yourself from them too (3) further when seeing an attractive black guy having to ask yourself the painfully absurd question “i wonder if he likes black women?”. Especially dark skin ones like me (4) narrow media imagery that has people thinking im shaqueisha when im gentle as a flower. (5) lastly all the consequences of the previous four (safety, value, desirability, image) that in many unspoken ways affect my life (where i can live/travel, who ill marry, what jobs/oppurtunities i will get etc). Anyway hope i made sense, peace

    In 1970, firearms registered to Davis were used in an armed takeover of a courtroom in Marin County, California, in which four people were killed and they are unable to practice Yoga and Meditation. Davis was a supporter of the Soledad Brothers, three inmates who were accused of killing a prison guard at Soledad Prison.

      On August 7, 1970, heavily armed 17-year-old African-American high-school student Jonathan Jackson, whose brother was George Jackson, one of the three Soledad Brothers, gained control of a courtroom in Marin County, California. He armed the black defendants and took Judge Harold Haley, the prosecutor, and three female jurors as hostages.[28][29] As Jackson transported the hostages and two black convicts away from the courtroom, the police began shooting at the vehicle. The judge and the three black men were killed in the melee; one of the jurors and the prosecutor were injured. Although the judge was shot in the head with a blast from a shotgun, he also suffered a chest wound from a bullet that may have been fired from outside the van. Evidence during the trial showed that either could have been fatal.[30] Davis had purchased several of the firearms Jackson used in the attack,[31] including the shotgun used to shoot Haley, which she bought at a San Francisco pawn shop two days before the incident.[29][32] She was also found to have been corresponding with one of the inmates involved

      @@ericahenderson7757 No sooner was Davis out of the slammer than she scurried to Havana to pay homage to the America-hating Fidel Castro. The regime fawned over her so much, filling the airwaves with everything she did, that annoyed Cubans finally composed an unkind ditty about her.
      I'm sure that Davis overlooked the deprivation of average Cubans as she moved from luxury suite to endless pavilions to peace, humanity, tractor-making, etc. Communism has a perfect record of failure, and it pauperized Cuba very quickly, as it is doing now to Venezuela.
      But Davis now wants to introduce the pathogen of Marxism here in the United States, and her version of "diversity" is its vector.
      "Diversity without changing the structure, without calling for structural formation, simply brings those who were previously excluded into a process that continues to be as racist, as misogynist as it was before," she told her UVA audience, making clear, again, that diversity is NOT be about hiring members of all races.
      Davis says a version of that everywhere.
      She's not always completely honest. At CSULA she advocated for the demise of capitalism and money. "Why should we not imagine the possibility of abolishing the centrality of money altogether?" she asked, not revealing that her speaking fee is between $10,001 and $20,000.
      But her candor about what "diversity," "multiculturalism," and "race studies" are all about almost makes up for her filling young minds with her distortions.

However insulated our lives are, we certainly can know by deduction what we haven't experienced directly. We need to address this issue so can then move on for real together and work on averting climate chaos, cuz we know Life Matters.

Even Angela didn't want to move there. She is just selling a utopian story, and that's all. And she makes money on that.

It's not that I lack sympathy, it is that I can recognize who has no advice to impart to me, and particularly not in a chiding, hate-laced manner. How ironic! Angela Davis studied philosophy at the doctoral level in three languages, German and French in addition to English. Who do you imagine she is? You must know nothing about her.
      Peterson just recycles a truncated, cramped Nietzsche and an equally cramped Jung, a combination that gets recycled every few decades, and of course makes money each time. I'd be surprised if he has read any of it in the original. Nor would he need to, for his purposes.
