<p><b>'Riveting; as fresh and relevant today as it was almost 50 years ago. The words fire off the page with humour, anger and eloquence'<i> Guardian</i><br><br>A powerful and commanding account of the life of trailblazing political activist Angela Davis</b><br><br>Edited by Toni Morrison and first published in 1974, <i>An Autobiography</i> is a classic of the Black Liberation era which resonates just as powerfully today. It is reissued now with a new introduction by Davis, for a new audience inspired and galvanised by her ongoing activism and her extraordinary example.<br><br>In the book, she describes her journey from a childhood on Dynamite Hill in Birmingham, Alabama, to one of the most significant political trials of the century: from her political activity in a New York high school to her work with the U.S. Communist Party, the Black Panther Party, and the Soledad Brothers; and from the faculty of the Philosophy Department at UCLA to the FBI's list of the Ten Most Wanted Fugitives.<br><br>Told with warmth, brilliance, humour, and conviction, it is an unforgettable account of a life committed to radical change.</p>
