Did you know that Angela Davis

is still alive?

No, really, I will be darned, and Marx be my witness! And no less than a professor (Distinguished Professor Emerita, retired) in what is called a "History of Consciousness Department" at UCSC.

Groovy, man...

Out of my childhood "heroes" only she and Leonard Peltier still survive http://kcmeesha.com/2008/12/03/behind-the-iron-curtain-political-prisoners-of-imperialism/

Oh yeah, and Angela got an out of jail card only due to a lot of luck. She should have done time by any criteria.

History of Consciousness seemingly covers a lot of ground. Boy these academics sure know how to give value for all that high-dollar tuition. I'm sure such a major will be valuable out in the, uh, "real world." Or did the department quietly dissolve with her retirement?

I looked at the site, it seems alive and kicking.
