Several audio recordings have been made of Angela Davis's speeches, including the one above.

In 1972, the Rolling Stones released "Sweet Black Angel" on the album Exile on Main Street, called a "negrophile homage" by one reviewer in the UK's Guardian Unlimited newspaper."Angela" by John Lennon and Yoko Ono, was released a month later, just days after Angela Davis was acquitted of federal murder charges.
