1968 to 2018: Remembering and Imagining Revolutionary Struggle with Angela Davis

The Division of Literatures, Cultures, and Languages (DLCL) presents an evening of conversation with scholar-activist Angela Davis. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Global 1968, this intergenerational interview is designed to help us reflect on historical and contemporary activism and community organizing. Angela Davis will be sharing her own experiences fighting for social justice and discussing how we all can contribute to this work in our present historical moment. Angela Davis will answer questions from Stanford English Professor Michele Elam, Stanford alumna Gabriella I. Johnson ('17), and the wider Stanford community. Please submit questions via the Eventbrite form below. We will frame our discussion around your questions and interests! Light refreshments will be served in the Cubberly lobby from 7.00pm.

An exhibition of sources from 1968 – including letters written to Angela Davis from France will take place in the Barchas Room in Green (off Special Collections) on May 24 from 1 to 3 p.m.
