The late Assata Shakur, born JoAnne Deborah Byron, became the first woman to make the Federal Bureau of Information’s (FBI) Most Wanted Terrorist List in 2013.
The future is female, as they say.
Shakur died in September, prompting an end-of-year tribute to her life by Nikole Hannah-Jones, writing for The New York Times Magazine. Hannah-Jones is best known for developing The 1619 Project, which purported (on the basis of weak evidence) that slavery was the impetus for the American Revolution. The project was, of course, awarded the 2020 Pulitzer Prize for Commentary. (RELATED: ‘1619 Project’ Documentary Is Laced With Inaccuracies, Historians Say)
“The United States government called her one of the world’s most-wanted terrorists. Assata Shakur called herself a 20th-century escaped slave. Claiming the runaway slave narrative proved a powerful and inspirational metaphor,” Hannah-Jones begins her lament. Hannah-Jones claims Shakur “placed herself in the pantheon of Black freedom fighters from Nat Turner to Harriet Tubman who, by any means necessary, took their liberation into their own hands.”
