Nine Black Women - An Anthology of Nineteenth-Century Writers from the United States, Canada, Bermuda and the Caribbean (Paperback, New)

This is the first anthology to bring together the writings of the
earliest black women writers in the East and West Caribbean,
Bermuda, Canada, the US and England. The selections span the
American Revolution to the decade following the Civil War.
The nine writers included, both slave and free, represent a
variety of genres, regions, professions, and political
perspectives. Their words suggest the rich cultural history
embedded in the writings, and provide a glimpse into the lives of
women coping with extreme racism and sexism. As black women,
survival guides the construction of their texts and their public
images. Each employs diverse strategies of resistance, evasion,
displacement, omission and accommodation.
With an introduction that contains copious biographical details
about each writer and a brief chronology preceding each text, "Nine
Black Women" is a unique collection of original works.
