Read ‘The Radical Politics of Nina Simone’, written by our @chardinetaylorstone - her first piece for @tribuneuk, and now also published by @Jacobinmag 📰 “Nina Simone is often remembered for her involvement in the Civil Rights Movement – but she was also a socialist who saw revolution as the path to true equality.” ✊🏿 Link in stories ⛓ . . . . #NinaSimone #Socialism #ChardineTaylorStone #TribuneMagazine #JacobinMagazine #BigJoanie #Sistahs #SistahPunk https://www.instagram.com/p/COILy-_HsP9/?igshid=uss9b8erwyg
