Whoa, definitely applying for this Harvard (Radcliffe) Schlessinger Library gig, part of which would be processing Angela Davis' papers, apparently.

Is it Bob Weir or Mickey Hart who is scouring the country to create a massive library to save American music that could easily be lost to posterity?

Wouldn't this be your dream job?

Good luck with Harvard!

I haven't heard anything about that (sounds more like a Hart thing, though), but I'd be down.

Interesting that her papers end up at Harvard/Radcliffe when her notoriety was from while she was on the west coast (UCLA, I think).

Yeah, I'm not sure how it happened -- looks like she got her bachelors at Brandeis, so there is some area connection. There is probably some cool shit in there, though.

Edit - here's an article.

Santa Cruz is pretty cool. Good old wooden roller coaster. Cool trails with tall trees. Had some good ice cream there once, too. http://mariannesicecream.com/

she was first hired as an instructor in Philosophy at UCLA (not USC fixed this). Gov Reagan had her fired for being a member of the Communist Party USA before she actually got to teach there.

ETA:

I should trust my memory more than the internet. It was UCLA where she was an instructor in Philosphy and then California governor Reagan had her fired for being a member of the Communist Party.

Trump is far more America First than our previous president and far more religious, so I don’t want to be lectured on what he believes nor what I am supposed to believe as a Christian.

Rubes.
