We speak with acclaimed scholar and activist Kimberle Crenshaw about her new book #SayHerName, which honors the stories of 177 Black women and girls killed by police between 1975 and 2022 whose deaths received little media coverage or other attention. We can't give these women back to their families, but we can make sure that they are not lost to history," Crenshaw tells Democracy Now! She also discusses the ongoing right-wing attack on Black knowledge," such as Florida's new education curriculum that claims slavery had personal benefit" for enslaved people, as well as the recent death of civil rights scholar Charles Ogletree.
