Piece based on Angela Davis poster by Keisuke Oki.

"Angela Davis is an American political activist, philosopher, academic, and author. The poster I selected from Smithsonian Treasures was made by the United Coalition for Angela Davis Day to demand bail for her. She was an icon of the 60s cultural and political revolution and is still radical."

Part of the Smithsonian Treasures project, a collection of new sound works inspired by items from the Smithsonian Museums’ collections - for more information, see http://www.citiesandmemory.com/smithsonian
