| Summary |
Takes a look at black feminism--its roots, its role, and its implications. From Charles Darwin and nineteenth-century racism to black nationalism and the Nation of Islam, from Baptist women's groups to James Baldwin; White takes on one institution after another as she re-centers the role of black women in the United States' intellectual heritage. She presents identity politics as a complex activity, with entangled branches of race and gender, of invisibility and voyeurism, of defiance and passivity and conformism. --From publisher description. |
