Cheryl Clarke, Angela Davis,
bell hooks, June Jordan, Audre Lorde, and Alice Walker—from the
pioneers of black women’s studies comes Still
Brave: The Evolution of Black Women's Studies,
the definitive collection of race and gender writings today.
Including Alice Walker’s groundbreaking elucidation of the term
“womanist,” discussions of women’s rights as human rights, and
a piece on the Obama factor, the collection speaks to the ways that
feminism has evolved and how black women have confronted racism
within it.
