Synopsis: |
As one of the first writers in the United States to claim black feminism for black women, Barbara Smith has done groundbreaking work in defining black women's literary traditions and in making connections between race, class, sexuality and gender. Pieces about racism in the women's movement, black and Jewish relations, and homophobia in the black community have ignited dialogue about topics that few other writers address. The collection also brings together commentaries on the 1968 Chicago Convention demonstrations; the Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas Senate hearings; and police brutality against Abner Louims. A personal essay rounds out the volume. |
