Honestly, Davis didn't do much relative to most people on this list. Pretty much all Black Radicals that people know like Malcolm X, or George Jackson or Mumia Abu-Jamal did more than her. Even going strictly by Marxism since not all Black Radicals were Marxist, she's not a major political figure and she didn't theoretically contribute anywhere close compared with someone like Gramsci. Meanwhile, Dr. Huey P. Newton was the cofounder of the BPP on top of adding his own theoretical contributions (the revolutionary potential of the lumpen-proletariat in settler/colonial contexts, intercommunalism).
