From the 19th-century articulations of Sojourner Truth to such
contemporary thinkers as Patricia J. Williams, black feminists have
always recognized the mutual dependence of race and gender. In this
text, Valerie Smith explores the myriad ways race and gender shape
lives and social practices. Smith identifies black feminist
theorizing as a strategy of reading rather than as something
located in a particular subjective experience. Her intent is not to
deny the validity of black women's lived experience, but rather to
resist deploying a uniform model of black women's lives. Whether
reading race or gender in the Central Park jogger case or in
contemporary media, like "Livin' Large," Smith dispalys critical
rigour that promises to change the way we think about race and
gender.
