Through activism and scholarship over many decades, Angela Y. Davis has 
been deeply involved in movements for social justice around the world. 
Her work as an educator – both at the university level and in the larger 
public sphere – has always emphasized the importance of building 
communities of struggle for economic, racial, and gender justice. Having 
helped to popularize the notion of a “prison industrial complex,” she 
now urges her audiences to think seriously about the future possibility 
of a world without prisons and to help forge a 21st century abolitionist 
movement. Angela Y. Davis is Distinguished Professor Emerita of History 
of Consciousness and Feminist Studies (UCLA-Santa Cruz).
