1:11:41Now PlayingTonight on OFFICE HOURS, Attorney LISA E. DAVIS joins Marc Lamont Hill to discuss her new book on Black intellectual property: "Our Minds Were Always Free: A History of How Black Brilliance Was Exploited - And The Fight To Retake Control." Lisa is one of the leading entertainment lawyers in the country and has held that position for the past 30+ years.
Her new book, which is her first, was released on Malcolm X's birthday. It is a groundbreaking work that traces the journey Black folks have been on, from being claimed as property to claiming the benefits of intellectual property.
“Davis paints a cohesive portrait of intellectual property theft as a key component of America’s anti-Black superstructure. Amid the rise of AI and new questions about who controls intellectual property, this is a unique and urgent contribution.” —Publishers Weekly
