Είναι που είσαι μαύρη γυναίκα στην Αμερική

by Assata Shakur, Δημήτρης Γκιούλος (Editor)

Η αγάπη είναι απαγορευμένη στην Κόλαση, γιατί η αγάπη είναι ένα οξύ που κατατρώει τα κάγκελα. Μα εσύ, εγώ και το αύριο πιανόμαστε χέρι-χέρι και δίνουμε όρκους πως ο αγώνας θα πολλαπλασιαστεί. Το σιδεροπρίονο έχει δυο λάμες. Η καραμπίνα έχει δυο κάννες. Κυοφορούμε την ελευθερία. Είμαστε μια συνωμοσία. (Από την παρουσίαση στο οπισθόφυλλο του βιβλίου)

About the author

Assata Olugbala Shakur was a Black civil rights activist who was a member of the Black Panther Party (BPP) and Black Liberation Army (BLA).

Between 1971 and 1973, Shakur was accused of several crimes, none of which had sufficient evidence to back them. However, knowing that she would not be able to prove her innocence, she escaped prison and fled to Cuba where she resided in political asylum. She is listed on the FBI Most Wanted Terrorist list.

For more information, do your own extensive research, bearing in mind that America is still very racist, bigoted, and micro-aggressive; therefore, not all sources are trustworthy. One of her most famous quotes is: “No one is going to give you the education you need to overthrow them. Nobody is going to teach you your true history, teach you your true heroes, if they know that that knowledge will help set you free.” Follow that example.
