 Posted: Fri Oct 01, 2004 11:55 pm Post subject: Anti War Activist Angela Davis Then and Now |
 |
|
In a post elsewhere I wrote about how activists
during Kerry's days were extremely radical and
made up of socialists and communists, including
people such as Jessie Jackson and Angela Davis.
I also talked about old habits don't die they just
smooth them out. This weekend on Sunday,
October 3 at 12:00 pm and at 5:00 pm eastern
time, Book TV on TV has a scheduled speaker:
Angela Davis. They have described it this way:
| Quote: | In Depth: Angela Davis
Description: Angela Y. Davis, author, activist, and professor of the history of consciousness at UC- Santa Cruz, joins us for a LIVE, three-hour discussion about her life and work. Professor Davis is the author of "Angela Davis: An Autobiography," "Women, Race, and Class," "Women, Culture, and Politics," "The Angela Y. Davis Reader," and "Blues Legacies and Black Feminism: Gertrude 'Ma' Rainey, Bessie Smith, and Billie Holiday." Her latest book is "Are Prisons Obsolete?" You can join the conversation by calling in during the program or by e-mailing booktv@c-span.org |
.

Note she is now a professor of history and author...but
let's turn back time a little bit.
David Horowitz (60/70s activist turned conservative):
| Quote: | | Angela Davis—a lifelong Communist zealot with no noticeable scholarly achievement—is a celebrated campus figure (there is even an "Angela Davis Lounge" at the University of Michigan) |
http://www.townhall.com/columnists/davidhorowitz/dh20020618.shtml
And a must read by David Horowitz titled:
Fight the Power at:

Vietnam Veterans Against the War VVAW, John Kerry, FBI files Section 8 (Oct–Nov 1971) #8 Angela Davis

This is why my grandchildren will go to private conservative
colleges.

Her book: "Portrait of a Revolutionary" She hasn't changed much.
She is also on the page of Kerry's saluting friends.
Commie Salute

Angela Davis is a terrorist, like Joanne Chesimard.
Thank god the FBI and the LEA broke Weatherman and the BLA or they'd be the US support structure for al Qaeda. |

FreeFall: are you serious about UCSC? Good heavens, they probably provide her with valet parking. All you have to be to gain legitimacy in most of the world of academia is to be such a leftist kook that even the other kooks are impressed. Angela Davis is a third rate scholar and a second rate terrorist.
I grew up in So. Cal during the 60's and 70's when all these vegetables were running amok, and I despise them all. I think it is why I have such a visceral dislike of the over-the-hill, aged and botoxed, war protesting, free loving, stupidity breeding doofus dorks that are now mostly in their late 50's. Like Clinton. Like Kerry.
Angela Davis: her chief claim to fame? Growing an afro capable of causing a solar eclipse.
BTW, I saw little Johnny Edwards giving the black power salute on CSPAN the other day. If that didn't look ridiculous! |
