Frank MorrowAlternative Views #298: ANGELA DAVIS SPEAKS OUT (1986)

Dr. Davis gives the history of rape, particularly in its
relationship to slavery and subsequent black history. She tells
us about some of the black women who have been prominent (but
unknown in White mainstream) leaders in the struggle against rape
and racism. She also analyzes the rather tenuous relationship of
the black civil rights movement with the women's liberation
movement in regard to the subject of rape. Finally, she points
to the low incidence of rape in Eastern European countries and
makes some observations regarding the differences between
capitalism and socialism which relate to the subject.
