Angela Davis will speak at the 11th Annual Mario Savio Memorial Lecture on Nov. 1 at 7 p.m. Davis will discuss the nexus of criminalization and of poverty and racial discrimination in a lecture entitled “From Jim Crow to Guantanamo: Prisons, Democracy and Empire.”
Davis is currently a professor at UC Santa Cruz and serves as the chair of the history of consciousness department. Davis, however, is most known for her politics in the ’70s, having joined the ranks of the Blank Panther and the Communist parties. At one point, she made the FBI’s “Ten Most Wanted” list.
