Courting Communities focuses on the writing and oratory of
nineteenth-century African-American women whose racial uplift
projects troubled the boundaries of race, nation and gender. In
particular, it reexamines the politics of gender in nationalist
movements and black women's creative response within and against
both state and insurgent black nationalist discourses. Courting
Communities highlights the ideas and rhetorical strategies of
female activists considered to be less important than the prominent
male nationalists. Yet their story is significant precisely because
it does not fit into the pre-established categories of nationalism
and leadership bequeathed to us from the past.
