Explain Angela Davis’s rape,racism and the myth of the black rapist using Marxist

Angela Davis talks about how the ideas of rape and racism are used to make black men look bad in society. She also talks about the myth that black men are more likely to be rapists. This idea is not true and is used to control and oppress black people. For example, in the past, black men were often falsely accused of raping white women as a way to justify violence against them. This shows how racism and the idea of black men as rapists are connected. One verifiable fact is that in the United States, black men are more likely to be wrongly convicted of crimes like rape compared to white men. This shows how the justice system can be biased against black people. In a Marxist analysis, this idea of the black rapist is used to divide and control the working class. By making black men seem dangerous, it distracts from the real issues of inequality and exploitation in society. Just like how a magician distracts the audience with one hand while doing a trick with the other hand. Overall, Angela Davis argues that we need to challenge these harmful stereotypes and fight for a more equal and just society for all people.
