Book description
El 2 de mayo de 1973, la integrante de los Panteras Negras Assata Shakur se hallaba en el hospital en estado crítico y esposada a la cama, mientras las autoridades locales y la policía federal trataban de interrogarla acerca del tiroteo en una autopista de Nueva Jersey que costó la vida a un policía blanco. Objetivo durante mucho tiempo de la campaña de Edgar Hoover para difamar, sabotear y criminalizar las organizaciones nacionalistas negras y a sus líderes, Shakur pasó cuatro años en la cárcel antes de su condena en 1977, sustentada en pruebas poco sólidas. Dos años después de ser condenada, Assata Shakur escapó de la cárcel y obtuvo asilo político en Cuba, donde vive en la actualidad.Esta autobiografía intensamente personal y política desmiente la temible imagen de Assata proyectada durante largo tiempo por los medios de comunicación y el Estado. Con ingenio y candor, relata las experiencias que la llevaron a una vida de activismo, retratando las virtudes, flaquezas y disolución final de los grupos revolucionarios negros y blancos a manos de agentes del gobierno. El resultado es una notable contribución a la literatura negra estadounidense, que ya ocupa un lugar junto a la Autobiografía de Malcolm X y a las obras de Maya Angelou.
