This volume brings together ten key essays in the development of
black feminism. The selections reflect the literary, social, and
political critiques that mark this form of feminist and antiracist
thought as unique and transformative. Addressing key themes within
cultural and social theory, such as the intersections of gender,
sex, race, class, and ideology, the analyses encourage critical
thinking about language, culture, and democracy.
Organized into two parts, "Literary Theory" and "Social and
Political Theory," this Reader explores issues of community,
identity, justice, and the marginalization of African American and
Caribbean women in literature, society, and political movements.
With contributions from male feminists, Marxists, legal scholars
and literary, cultural and social theorists, "The Black Feminist
Reader" illustrates both the impressive depth and expansive range
of contemporary black feminism.
Contributors include: Barbara Christian, Toni Morrison, Hortense
J. Spillers, Michael Awkward, Sylvia Wynter, bell hooks, Angela Y.
Davis, Patricia Hill Collins, KimberleU Crenshaw and Joy James.
