My Black Feminist Activist-Scholar mother Dr. Gwendolyn Zoharah Simmons speaking at a rally calling for Justice for Trayvon Martin yesterday at the University of Florida. Since the 1960s Gwendolyn/Zoharah has been on the frontlines of civil rights, Black power, women’s, anti-war(s), and/or economic justice movements for radical social change in the US and globally.
