In 1968, revolutionary freedom fighter Grace Lee Boggs wrote an essay speaking to the definition and need for a Black Revolution. She provides us with a grounded assessment of what a revolution in the US means for our collective work. In this episode, Revolutionary Baddies dissect her essay, which is featured in “Black Women: An Anthology” by Toni Cade Bambara. Grace Lee Boggs was a Chinese-American organizer, writer, and educator moving through and with the Black Liberation Struggle in 1940s- 1970s. She advocated for evolution and developed a reputation alongside her husband, James Boggs, who was also a revolutionary organizer in Detroit. More than ever, the political and economic climate is calling for a new sense of urgency and a deeper understanding of what a revolution requires.
