Berättelsen om aktivisten som jagades av FBI och blev en internationell frihetssymbol på kuppen. Nya avsnitt från P3 ID hittar du först i Sveriges Radio Play. Angela Davis växer upp i rasmotsättningarnas Alabama under 40- och 50-talet. Det här är en tid då Ku Klux Klan försöker skrämma svarta familjer till tystnad och politikerna i sydstaterna verkar göra sitt bästa för att bevara status quo.Med tiden kommer Angela Davis att snöa in på en akademisk bana. Hon studerar filosofi under några av Europas största namn inom området.På hemmaplan bubblar det samtidigt av rörelser som på olika sätt har börjat ta upp kampen för den afro-amerikanska saken. Men att bara iaktta dessa rörelser på håll räcker inte. Angela Davis vill vara där, sida vid sida med de andra medborgarrättsaktivisterna.Väl tillbaka i USA hamnar Davis snart i hetluften på flera fronter.Efter påtryckningar från Kaliforniens guvernör, och USA:s framtida president, Ronald Reagan sparkas den öppet kommunistiska Angela Davis från sin lärartjänst på UCLA.Snart finner hon sig dessutom anklagad för medhjälp till mord, efter att ett vapen registrerat i hennes namn använts under ett dödligt gisslandrama på västkusten. Davis går under jord och hamnar på FBI:s ”most wanted”-lista.Efter en två månaders katt-och-råtta-lek med myndigheterna hamnar Angela Davis till slut i fängelse. Fallet blir en följetong i media och världen över demonstreras det för att hon ska släppas fri.P3 ID om Angela Davis är en berättelse om aktivism, rasism och ideologiska bataljer genom decennier.I avsnittet hörs bland andra Sveriges Radio-journalisten Fernando Arias och dokumentärfilmaren Göran Hugo Olsson.Programledare: Vendela Lundberg

My guest this week is Ramon Hervey II, who's worked as a highly regarded entertainment manager, brand consultant, and public relations specialist with a diverse and impressive roster of entertainers that encompass a wide spectrum of contemporary music genres, ranging from pop/rock, rhythm & blues, hip-hop, jazz, and gospel.  The list includes Richard Pryor, Bette Midler, Little Richard Lenny Kravitz, Don Cornelius, Paul McCartney, Herb Alpert, Vanessa Williams, Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, Peter Frampton, Andrae Crouch, Nick Nolte, and James Caan, and many more.  He has also served as an Executive Producer for several films, television and live events, including the Peabody Award-winning documentary, "Chisholm '72: Unbought & Unbossed," the anniversary album, "NBA AT 50," and was a Music Supervisor for the NAACP Award-winning film "Free Angela and All Political Prisoners. Ramon recently wrote about his experiences in a book entitled “The Fame Game: An Insider's Playbook For Earning Your 15 Minutes.” During the interview we spoke about promoting the great Motown acts, managing Little Richard, working with Mohammed Ali, what it takes to be successful in the entertainment business, dealing with celebrity egos, and much more. I spoke with Ramon from his office in New York via zoom. On the intro I'll take a look at why you can't rely on social media as your online presence, and dancing more when there's more very low frequencies. var podscribeEmbedVars = { epId: 84224726, backgroundColor: 'white', font: undefined, fontColor: undefined, speakerFontColor: undefined, height: '600px', showEditButton: false, showSpeakers: true, showTimestamps: true };

The new Hollywood film “Judas and the Black Messiah” is based on the lives of Black Panther leader Fred Hampton and the person who betrayed him, FBI informant William O'Neal. The film's director Shaka King has credited documentaries for playing a key role in his research.
