Notice no mention about their innocence.

Isn't it amazing that these 60's radicals (murderers) like Angela and Bill Ayers have found success on the lecture circuit and in the educational system?

When you are blinded by racism and searching for the Communist ideal this is the kind of reasoning that evolves. Angela you go tell the black mother whose son has been murdered by another black man that he's not going to jail because the quota for black prisoners has been exceeded.

Angela Davis: Prisons perpetuate oppression of minorities
By CLYNTON NAMUONew Hampshire Union Leader Correspondent

DURHAM – After the inauguration of the first black president, America is now on the precipice of changes that were never before possible, 1960s radical turned academic Angela Davis told a crowd of hundreds at the University of New Hampshire last night.
The vestiges of slavery, colonization and exploitation remain rife throughout America, as is evidenced by the over-representation of minorities in prison, Davis said. The prison population, now estimated to be one in 100 adult Americans, only contributes to the oppression of minorities, she said.
It is a pattern seen across the country, even in New Hampshire, Davis said.
In the Granite State, white men are arrested at a rate of 289 per 100,000, but for black men it is more than 2,000 per 100,000, Davis said.

"That means a black man in this state is 10 times more likely to be discovered behind bars," she said.
Minorities are often over-represented in prison because police surveillance in their communities is higher, Davis said.
Around the world, the same thing is happening as people who were once unashamedly beat down continue to live below others both socially and economically. While blacks and other minorities are over-represented in American prisons, in Australia, it is aborigines, she said.
Davis spoke before a crowd of more than 500 last night as she keynoted UNH's Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. celebrations at the Johnson Theatre. Her topic: Education or Incarceration: The Future of Democracy.
Davis said prisons in America help to perpetuate a cycle that keeps minorities down and contributes to a lack of education for them.
"Of course, more funds are channeled into prisons so that education suffers and because education suffers, more people end up along trajectories that lead them into prison, which means more funds have to be channeled into the prisons; it's this vicious circle," she said.
But now, with a black President in office, America may finally have the momentum to disassemble what she called the "prison industrial complex," one where incarceration is privatized and profited from.
"This is the moment to think about the different modes of justice," she sai. "Justice that is compassionate, justice that is community building, not community destroying."
Davis was once a radical and member of the Black Panthers, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and the Communist party. She gained notoriety for a headline-making 1972 trial in California, where she was acquitted of murder and kidnapping charges.
Since then, she has become a respected university professor and does extensive research on prisons and minorities.
