I find it so hypocritical that Assata Shakur (named her legal name Joanne Chesimard) is still one of FBI's Most Wanted despite no actual evidence that she killed the New Jersey State Trooper, was shot by a cop, was treated in unfair prison conditions for being a black revolutionary and the fact that the KKK is still not declared as a terrorist group. It really makes you think.

Her name is Assata Olugbala Shakur. Assata is a West Afrikan name derived from the Arabic name "Aisha" which means "she who struggles". Olugbala means "saviour" in Yoruba and Shakur means "thankful one" in Arabic.

Assata. Eine Autobiografie aus dem schwarzen Widerstand in den USA by Assata Shakur; Lennox S. Hinds; Regine Geraedts

Topics
, , , , , , , , , , ,

Assata Shakur, Mitglied der Black Panther Party und Mitbegründerin der Black Liberation Army, erzählt in ihrer Autobiografie mit kraft voller, authentischer Sti mme vom tief verwurzelten Rassismus in den USA und vom Aufbruch der militanten schwarzen Bürgerrechtsbewegung in den 1960er- und 1970er-Jahren. Sie zeichnet ein bewegendes Bild ihrer Kindheit bei den Großeltern im South Carolina der frühen 1950er-Jahre und ihrer Jugend in den Straßen der Bronx, berichtet detailliert über ihre Zeit im Gefängnis und über die rassistische Struktur des US-amerikanischen Justizsystems. In den Text eingestreut sind Gedichte Assata Shakurs, die erahnen lassen, was es bedeutet, schwarz, Frau und Revolutionärin zu sein.
