By Rosemary Sinungton Born 28 years ago, Angela Davis was raised m the Ieep South ol Birmingham, Alabama, she grew up among a generation of Black people who had seen their men risk thei lives overseas in a fight against foreign fascism only to return home anil uni! that same mentality s till directed against themselves. It was in this South that Angela, like so many other Blacks, grew into awareness. She saw the svmbols of law and order represented by the likes of George Wallace and Bull Connor, the burning cross of the old South, the electric cattle prods of the new. Yet she also saw, among her generation, the firs t glimmerings of a renewed resistance, and she joined that resistance, picketing segregated fa c ilitie s , canvassing in voter registration, participating in integrated study groups. These early years were years of young hopes and old, abiding fears. When she was 1', Angela did leave Birmingham. She received a Quaker scholarship to a New York City high school. There despite her obvious intelligence, she had to study harder than most of the students to compensate for the in fe rio r, segregated education she had re ceived in the South. But she made rapid progress and at the end of her senior year Angela was awaried a scholarship to Bratxieis University, where she chose French literature as her m ajor field. In her junior year, she studied at the Sorbonne in P aris. In her final year at Bramleis, Angela began philosophical studies with Professor H erbeit Marcuse and devoted herself to her studies, graduating magna cum laude with honors in French literature. She changed to philosophy fo r her graduate work, continuing her studies on a German State Scholarship at G° * the Lm ve.sity m Frankfurt, West Germany. A fte r two years of study, however, she de cided to leave Germany. W hat had begun as an escape from racist America grew to seem, to hei, an exile from the struggle of her Black brothers and sisters in Am erica. She returned home to join the struggle. She enrolled at the Lniversity of C alifornia at San Diego to complete her doctoral piogram under Professor .Marcuse. While at LCSD, Angela became intensely involved in the Southern Ca norma Black community, organ round Community issues, unemployment, police brutal.ty. ark! on her own campus, fighting for a Third World people's college. Angela became involved in the defense «♦ the Soledad Brothers, three black prisoners falsely accused of killin g a guard at Soledad Prison. She began to expose the brutal, racist prison In August» 1970’ an dttempt was made to free prisoners and a judge was killed. A though she was nowhere near the courthouse, the police claim that Angela’ s guns were used d i * S' ape attenlPt. and on this basis charge her with conspiracy, kidnap and murder. 3 u FB* 10 M° St Wanted L is t, she has been in prison since she was captured in October, 1970.
