On Palestine, G4S and the Prison Industrial Complex: an evening with Angela Davis

 

War on Want, School of Law at SOAS and the Russell Tribunal on Palestine are honoured to host Angela Davis and Gina Dent for a discussion on Justice for Palestine and the Stop G4S campaign.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to hear eminent feminist scholar-activists Angela Davis and Gina Dent in London, 13 December, discussing Palestine and the struggle for liberty in a world of growing militarisation, privatised repression and the proliferation of prisons.

Angela Davis is an activist, writer and scholar, known for her leadership in the Black civil rights movement and her pioneering work against the prison industrial complex. Gina Dent is Associate Professor in the Feminist Studies Department, University of California, Santa Cruz, and is a leading global advocate for human rights and prison abolition
