Angela T. Rye Edits 'Our Declarations of Independence' with Prologue by Ibram X. Kendi
Angela T. Rye has edited a new book titled "Our Declarations of Independence," which features a prologue written by Ibram X. Kendi. This anthology brings together various Black thinkers to reflect on, react to, and rewrite the Declaration of Independence. The book aims to address the current societal crisis and envision future freedom, exploring what independence truly means for all Americans, especially given that the original declaration's promise of equality has not historically applied to everyone. The contributors offer intersectional perspectives from diverse backgrounds, including labor organizers, clergy members, queer rights advocates, and descendants of historical figures.
